What kind of work does your organisation do and what kinds of teams are using Confluence?

For example a generic team space structure might include:

  • A section for internal reference documentation, templates, links to other systems, tools, people/teams
  • A section for meeting notes and work in progress
  • A section for team admin - e.g. contact list, leave calendar, birthdays, favourite places to eat and drink, etc
  • Use blogposts for updates, announcements, journaling, fun stuff, people coming and going, and news

Of course if you have a team of teams, you might want to split these out into their own spaces - e.g. all shared documentation lives in a specific space.

Templates and blueprints can be helpful to encourage consistent formatting and to guide new users to provide information that is useful for everyone like labels.

 

There are some great suggestions here for new Confluence users.

@[deleted] : Wow! What a great question and such an open book.
Go with what Kat has provided and see what looks applicable. And to add on to that I would also do some researching within your team(s).
- How do they want to work?
- What needs to be shared?
- Is it only Wiki type pages or project/portfolio work?
- How will / do they want to use Spaces?
- Will Spaces be used 1 per project ?
- Etc. Etc.
Get them involved :o)
