MindMeister is an online mind mapping software that works like an extension of your brain. Think of it as a digital catch basin for your team’s best ideas — team members can contribute to business plans within the tool. Creative minds can piece together the big plan section by section. After the initial steps are laid out, they can be tweaked and assigned. But the app has uses cases far beyond business. If you’re planning a vacation, creating a budget or even studying for an exam, MindMeister can help you organize and visualize your big thoughts and little details in a coherent way.

Socratic Seminar relevance!
