Ideas to action

What is the ideas to action template?

So, you’ve just finished a brainstorming session with a whiteboard full of ideas. Now what?

An idea is only as good as what you can do with it, which is why we recommend a template built to guide each idea from its inception to its actionable phase. Our ideas to action template is designed to help your team move forward with fully formed, prioritized ideas that your team can agree on and be accountable for. Collaborate with your team synchronously or asynchronously, together or remotely, without losing momentum or forfeiting your team’s best ideas.

Benefits of using the ideas to action template

Brainstorms are a fantastic way to develop new ideas, solve problems, and make sure every team member has a voice. Without proper organization and planning, however, you can spend hours engaging with your team with nothing to show for it. The ideas to action template enhances team collaboration by giving a voice to the individual and guiding the efforts of the collective.

Our easy-to-use template lets you take your ideas and build on them as a team, then move your ideas on to the next steps, where you and your team can create meaningful action items based on priority. Easily implement your ideas and measure your progress as a team to ensure that each task, goal, and idea is always accounted for.
