Facilitating a meeting can feel like a balancing act between making it fun and engaging, delivering the content in a digestible way, and keeping people focused, all while racing against the clock. Not to mention all the prep work that goes into making a meeting succeed.
To ensure you’re prepared and that your collaborative session runs as smoothly as possible, we’ve created a checklist of items to set up your Lucidspark board and your audience for success.
1. Check meeting permissions
Before your meeting starts, consider sharing the Lucispark board with attendees. There are so many ways to share in Lucid, including:
-
Sharable link
-
Email
-
Set a passcode and expiration (Enterprise only)
-
Join ID
You can also set permission levels for different stakeholders. From the Share button on your Lucidspark board, you can select can edit and share, can edit, can comment, or can view.

This will make your board a central hub where all related information is. You can add links to files, Lucid documents, and other data with a few clicks.
Additionally, adding a video to your Lucidspark board is a great way to give additional context, verbally explain a process, and bring team members up to speed if they couldn’t attend the meeting. Video is also a great way for people to jump into the board and quickly refer back to the meeting topics.
