How to Really Use a Whiteboard (Demo Included) | Christine vs. Work

[@harvardbusinessreview]

How do you use whiteboards (physical or digital) these days? -Christine Also, more on Note and Vote Method (literally my favorite thing): library.gv.com/note-and-vote-how-to-avoid-groupthink-in-meetings-24e829e43295

Its easy to forget how important this is. Been part of a few startups and this is critical for road mapping and staying on course. Awesome video thank you.

I love whiteboards. I work in IT and many people make fun because I constantly use "offline" tools like whiteboard, sketches etc. But it really makes sense to use analogue tools to sketch and develop ideas, then digital to document and detail. Would love to see the whole nerd-segment about sticky-note glue, whiteboard material etc :D

[@harvardbusinessreview]

Hi Christian, thanks for sharing! Glad that being on #teamwhiteboard has helped you so much 🤗 Regarding recommendations on supplies, here are Jake's comprehensive checklists for physical and digital sprints (all heavily whiteboard-driven): www.thesprintbook.com/supplies www.thesprintbook.com/articles/remote-design-sprint-guide -Christine

Thanks a ton, Christine & HBR, for the amazing content . Would love to see videos on business & strategies.

[@alexdebatin]

Excellent subject! The magic of the whiteboard is in making it easier for the brain to review and analyze the subject while it is being explained, increasing retention. And the act of erasing the content also sends commands to the mental process. To master the art of using the whiteboard it is necessary to use it routinely as a personal tool and repeat it many times to learn the best way to express the content. Over time its use becomes fluid and natural. That's why teachers are the greatest masters of efficient use of this important tool.

I absolutely love everything about this video. Brilliantly done. Subscribed

[@nancysnow85]

This video was extremely helpful -- loved the fresh look at a common tool. Thank you!

[@jessejameslatimer8686]

I’m such a nerd - videos I watch during my free time 😅

[@bkemler]

Awesome video, just the right amount of time and info to be super-helpful. I'd love a video on frameworks or structure to help develop strategy for a product.

[@thiphuongmaitran1247]

I would suggest a video on doing research. It is most of the time a messy process. It allows much room for flexibility, so ironically it sometimes makes us less controlled over the information coming in. How could a great amount of information be organized so that we can save our time from not knowing what to use because of overwhelming info?

[@ChrisPolg]

Thanks for making me chuckle several times

[@DanielGallegos1]

I keep watching this video simply because of my love of whiteboards! 😅 😊

[@mapguy83]

Another great video Christine and HBR. I'm a huge fan of whiteboards, physical and digital but must admit some guilt in bringing the full suite of marker colours to some meetings! I'd like to hear about hot desking. Where it works, where it doesn't and how to handle it should your company decide to introduce it.

[@algonquinanderson8600]

Great video I am a cloud architect designer and it is definitely needed in my field. Have a lot more to explore on it. If you ever do a video. With cloud design, I will be watching. Thank you.😊

[@iamhifzur]

How to keep meetings short - crisp - simple. How to be smart about not having them so often.

[@BettieG82]

Yes, please! This is perfect!

[@Kriti2801]

Side track - love ur green top with 🐆

[@harvardbusinessreview]

Thank you! I'm all about the prints. -Christine

[@stellastarstel]

This video is so much helpful, informative, and funny!

[@SashaOmar]

MS TEAMs is very commonly used these days in most organisations.. would love to see how we can use the ideas presented in this video using the MS TEAMs whiteboard or any of the other commonly available tools in that suite

[@aldenscottcrow]

I miss whiteboards - all meetings are virtual now. Digital boards don't seem the same. Have whiteboard wall (painted) at home and family uses for notes and brainstorming. Great video 👍

[@popcycleism]

Christina your are an awesome team lead.

[@joaonogueirasantos8211]

Amazing content !😀 I suggest video on how to start your day or week, how to stay energized and happy like you!

[@MoritzFischer]

Love your videos. Thank you!

[@bobbehrens7966]

I am still trying to figure out: is this video about using a physical whiteboard or using one online? I am really confused. I really have not heard of this before.

[@bibletalkwithdrsteve]

I loved this video. Thanks. :) If you're still reading these comments - I want to use a white board for my KZbin channel. Do you have anything. (I'm not wanting to use a digital whiteboard but an "old-fashioned" one. I used to use them in my classroom and like them. Any thoughts? (I don't yet know enough to ask any lucid questions.)

[@dinishwi7522]

Wow. This was helpful. I used to complain about whiteboards, but now, this got me interested to use them more in my lectures :) LOL. Guess, I was a bit old school think " blackboards" are way cooler, the ones we write with " white chalk". Many Asian schools have them.

[@harvardbusinessreview]

There's room for both! What is a blackboard but just a whiteboard in "dark mode"? 🤔 -Christine

[@aussiegruber86]

I write my todo list on my office whiteboard only surface large enough

[@МерекеБазарбаев-ю7т]

Thank you,very much.Hello is Kazakhstan!

[@narutokunn]

I can't help but think that Karim Benzema is teaching me whiteboards.

[@joseqr8042]

Great video, loving it. I do have a topic I want you to research. My manager is pretty youg, around 34, and he has no experience managing people. Can you tell us what can fresh managers do to be successful in their positions?

[@PaperRaines]

Christine had way too much fun making this video. Her and the video editors lol

[@IlyaMedvetsky2000]

06: 51 Music?

[@andreachiu1935]

I agree, the adhesive on giant post-it sheets is too strong.

[@GustavoSilva-ny8jc]

3:52 To call it pessimism is a REALLY bad conotation, you're actually doing something GREAT cause otherwise you're playing chess without looking at what the opponent is doing and is as noob or scrub and dangerous as it gets. That's why i dont even think in those terma and see as a natural part of planning, at least call it Premeditateo Malorum or Self Defense or think in terms of counters.

[@AvaniVee]

I don't think it's necessary that everyone uses a Whiteboard. Sure, it might be useful in some scenarios, but using it for every meeting doesn't make sense, because that really depends on the purpose of the meeting, and selected tools need to support the cause. Instead, curate a selection of tools that are required as part of the preparation process, and share that with participants before the session. Let's be creative and imaginative, rather than getting everyone to work in the same way or fashion, which eventually becomes boring and pointless :)

[@GustavoSilva-ny8jc]

This video didnt have the right to be this good

[@sirisaksirisak6981]

Good, we can take photo on the mobile and help Prof. exercising fingers and breath the toxin chemicle into their lungs cause lung cancer in the future.Pros 1.Easy to correct when miswritten 2.Easy to follow if not understand fully can turn back.3.Rehearsal hand writting on black board.4.Concentrate student to attend on secret point of course.5.Every student can see clearly no matter where they seat front or end, left or right.6.Agree with, but worry about Prof. health in the long run.7.Some have the right fingers bigger than the left but not much.

[@paulkruger3425]

Great video

[@doubleoseven273]

Bahahahaha…..Glad you finally figured it out Christine! ;)

[@gwholdom]

I’ve always disliked the use of whiteboards as being slow, clumsy, messy, and disorganised… but this the thoughts here may have changed my mind - time to give it another go.

[@agfilmwriter2921]

There’s no right or wrong write goals on a whiteboard. Do what works best for you

[@carldubcats3385]

cool

[@christineabercrombie7316]

i dont know about mirror mirror on the wall nut i know about whiteboards.

[@HelloKittyFanMan.]

"...Like if you're working with people in real life." Oops, that guy didn't make sense. Like some of his or our business presentations would be fictional, HBR? Pschh!

[@algordon5965]

Very funny....thanks

[@doubleoseven273]

Do people actually use these??

[@mariannenapoles146]

Awful headline. Makes me feel dumb right off the bat. 😢

[@Vyker]

I think so much less of Harvard after subscribing to this channel. I'm out.

[@rishuyadav1662]

I dont even hv a degree, but if someone would tell me to improvise a talk on how to use whiteboards smartly i would deliver a talk/presentation that is bit more exciting than this. I hvnt viewed much on this channel but i first got more interested/excited when i saw her title as innovation editor and that he has written some books with cool names, maybe thats how people accept/buy the content... im more for blackboards. (and yeah my grammer or sentence structure + spelling is on lazy mode right now, i hope yall are ok with that. but yeah come on hardvard) and i think colorful sticky notes might trick the mind but done right they might help the mind too, or?
