Mission Canvas

What is it?

A tool that helps cross disciplinary teams to make sure they all have the same goal and create the biggest impact. The canvas creates a single page overview capturing the shared understanding for the project from all team members.

This canvas helps inform operational planning, getting the resources you need, and preparing for any problems that might come up.

This tool is for cross-disciplinary teams who want to align their thinking at the outset of a project and create a single source of reference going forward.
