Boost your personal efficiency ⚡

Make the most of your personal space — it acts as your own folder without cluttering team spaces or impacting other's workflows. ✅

Here are a few pre-built templates best-kept secrets to keep in your personal space:

• Quarterly check-in: Your personal progress report that prepares you for those all-important review conversations.
• To-do list: The classic organizer. Jot down, categorize, and prioritize your tasks. There's nothing quite like the satisfaction of checking off completed items.
• Out-of-office plan: Keep team members in the loop on current projects while you enjoy some (well-deserved) time off. 🏝️

💡 Pro tip: By default, all pages are accessible to your team. Choose who gets to see or edit pages by managing your page restrictions.

There are plenty more to choose from to fit your needs. Browse the template gallery.

Make meetings more productive

Staying in sync with your team is essential, and Confluence is here to ensure you and your team are always on the same page, literally. ✅

• Weekly meeting notes: Keep recurring meetings productive by adding agendas, recording notes, and tracking action items and decisions on one page.

• Presenter mode: Are you presenting in an upcoming meeting? Get guidance on formatting your page so it shines in the spotlight and looks best when presented.

• Retrospective: Reflect on past work by celebrating what went well and identifying opportunities for improvement.

💡 Pro tip: Use collaborative editing during meetings to simultaneously work on pages with your team. Assign tasks to teammates with an @mention, and set due dates to push projects forward. Use the /decision macro to capture and track final decisions.

Brainstorm without boundaries 🎨

Confluence whiteboards bring the flexibility of a digital whiteboard into your workspace, providing an infinite canvas for teams to bring ideas to life — from a spark of inspiration to full-fledged execution. ✅

Fill whiteboards with colorful sticky notes, connect thoughts with shapes and lines, and use stamps to highlight breakthrough ideas. You can set a timer to keep your brainstorming sessions energized and focused.

There are templates for every role and team equipped with helpful prompts, strategic questions, and visual aids. Use them to:

• Break the ice: If you're new to whiteboards, why not explore its features while also getting to know your teammates better?

• Brainstorm: Create, share, and vote for ideas, encourage problem-solving, and develop innovative solutions as a team.

• Plan and strategize: Visually organize work, map out plans and projects, and turn ideas into reality.

💡 Pro tip: Add visual context to your work by embedding a whiteboard smart link to project posters, product roadmaps, kanban boards, and more.

Confluence whiteboard templates are designed to spark creativity and help you get started quickly. Learn how to access them here.
