Case Study: Microsoft improves virtual meeting structure and productivity with Conceptboard

Microsoft reduces meeting prep to 5 minutes with Conceptboard

Microsoft faced the challenge of an overwhelming increase in virtual meetings during the pandemic, which often lacked structure, led to unproductive discussions, and resulted in frustration and longer to-do lists for participants. To address this, they turned to Conceptboard and implemented its collaborative platform alongside a new meeting framework.

Conceptboard's solution was the implementation of the "5 Finger Method" template, a structured approach for preparing and running meetings that focuses on five key categories: Why, What, Who, When, and How. By using Conceptboard to visualize goals, collect ideas asynchronously, and work interactively, Microsoft was able to drastically reduce meeting duration and quantity while simultaneously increasing productivity and outcomes, saving valuable time for their hybrid teams.
