What’s the Company Vision Board Template?
The Company Vision Board Template contains a framework for you to have a starting point in defining your company goals, direction, and mission. This template helps you facilitate a company vision workshop, where you can define the following:
What to expect from a company vision day, and why it’s important.
Where are we: the company background story and strengths.
Who are we: team’s personality test results and team member's intros.
What do we do: company’s USPs, audience, and differentiators.
Why do we do it: company vision, mission, and purpose.
How will we get there: a roadmap to achieve your company vision.
Benefits of the Company Vision Board Template
The company vision board is a document that should be shared and used across your organization. Running this workshop helps teams to define a more straightforward path and to make better-informed decisions according to the company’s roadmap and vision. It also helps to build buy-in from team members.
Here are some other benefits of crafting the company vision board:
Define goals according to company values and vision and connect teams around them.
Define strengths and differentiators and what sets the business apart from others.
Connect the team and set roles and responsibilities.
Set targets and actionable points to reach company goals.
How to use Company Vision Board Template
Add the Company Vision Board Template to your Miro board. You’ll find instructions for every step of the workshop in each frame on the template. Remember this is a collaborative session; make sure that everyone is acclimated to the board (check the first frame of the workshop) and knows how to navigate the workshop.
When facilitating a company vision workshop, keep in mind:
Workshop duration: It takes 5-7 hours to run this workshop, so plan ahead.
Prep work: send out the personality tests you’ll need in the workshop beforehand, and write the company’s background story and data from the last year.
Depending on the size of your company, run the company vision workshop on a team level.
After the workshop, you will know:
Where you stand as a company.
Who is everyone on the team.
Your team’s strengths and backgrounds.
What your team really wants.
What’s your USP (unique selling point) as a company.
What’s your company vision statement.
What’s your company mission statement.
What’s your company purpose.
A game plan for how to achieve this.
Pro tips:
Make sure you define some actionable points at the end of the workshop. This will guide the following steps and hold people accountable.
If your brand's core values need to change, allow them to. The same goes for strategy, goals, and vision.
Schedule a follow-up session, ensure teams are aligned and create a company mission statement that everyone can consult and return to.
What should a company vision board include?
The company vision board should include the answer to these five questions: Where are we? Who are we? What do we do? Why do we do it? How will we do it?. These questions are fundamental to make team members understand the reason behind their work and get their buy-in. Involving everyone in the discussion also helps to connect them directly with their goals and align their mission with the company’s mission.
How do you structure a vision workshop?
The company vision workshop has three main acts: the prep work, the intro, when you get people acclimated to Miro tools and functions, and when you explain what you’ll be doing in the workshop and workshop steps, then the workshop itself, crafting step-by-step your company’s vision board.

RACI Matrix Template
Works best for:
Leadership, Decision Making, Org Charts
The RACI Matrix is an essential management tool that helps teams keep track of roles and responsibilities and can avoid confusion during projects. The acronym RACI stands for Responsible (the person who does the work to achieve the task and is responsible for getting the work done or decision made); Accountable (the person who is accountable for the correct and thorough completion of the task); Consulted (the people who provide information for the project and with whom there is two-way communication); Informed (the people who are kept informed of progress and with whom there is one-way communication).
Corrective Action Plan Template
Works best for:
Project Management, Operations, Strategic Planning
For a manager or HR leader, it’s the least fun part of the job: Documenting an employee’s performance issues and talking about them directly to that employee. A corrective action plan makes that tough task a little easier by putting issues into a professional, written framework. That way the process, next steps, and details of the conversations are all clearly documented. This template will enable you to eliminate murky communication, align on expectations, and provide step-by-step instructions for your employee.
Strategy Map Template
Works best for:
Leadership, Strategic Planning, Mapping
How do your individual or team goals relate to an organization’s overall strategy? A Strategy Map is a stylized picture of your organization’s strategy and objectives. It’s powerful because it provides a clear visual guide to how these various elements work together. Strategy Maps can help align various different team goals with the overall strategy and mission. With the Strategy Map in place, teams can create set actionable, relevant KPIs. Strategy mapping is often considered part of the balanced scorecard (BSC) methodology, which is a strategic planning tool for setting overall team goals.
Growth Experiments Template
Works best for:
Leadership, Desk Research, Strategic Planning
Many ambitious companies are eying the future and aiming to grow. But growth decisions can be leaps of faith that are risky and costly. That’s why growth experiments make so much sense. They offer a systematic six-step method that reveals which strategies are most effective, how they’ll affect your revenue, and how they compare to your past approaches. By helping you test out your strategies for scaling your business before you fully commit, growth experiments can save you serious time, resources, and money.
Organizational Change Map
Works best for:
Org Charts, Operations, Mapping
The Organizational Change Map template helps teams navigate organizational change effectively. By visualizing change initiatives, stakeholders, and timelines, this template facilitates change planning and communication. With sections for documenting change impacts and mitigation strategies, this template empowers teams to manage change proactively and minimize disruption.
3-Circle Venn Diagram
Works best for:
Education, Diagrams, Brainstorming
Venn diagrams have been a staple of business meetings and presentations since the 1800s, and there’s a good reason why. Venn diagrams provide a clear, effective way to visually showcase relationships between datasets. They serve as a helpful visual aid in brainstorming sessions, meetings, and presentations. You start by drawing a circle containing one concept, and then draw an overlapping circle containing another concept. In the space where the circles overlap, you can make note of the concepts’ similarities. In the space where they do not, you can make note of their differences.
