Here's more information to help you get started.
Open MindManager and select a template or start with a blank whiteboard. Add each step in your process, assign tasks, and attach resources.
Our timelines are fully customizable, so there's no right or wrong way to get started.
Start by listing all the steps in the process you're looking to map. Add due dates, assignees, and prioritization.
Then, select an element to represent each step. You might choose to use the same element (say a yellow triangle) for each step or vary the elements by type — maybe marketing's steps are in blue while the product team's tasks are in green.
Then, attach any documents or resources needed to complete the step. When each task is completed, check it off. This will provide a clear overview of your project.
