Made for Collaborative Workshops
Why Ludi works well for collaborative workshops
Workshops rely on structure, facilitation, and active participation across multiple phases. Ludi provides a guided environment where each part of the session is clearly organised, helping facilitators run workshops smoothly while keeping participants focused and engaged.
Structure complex, multi-phase sessions
Workshops can be broken into clear phases, each with its own activity, so participants know exactly what to focus on at each step.
Reduce facilitator overhead
Built-in facilitation tools handle timing, sequencing, and flow, allowing the host to focus on the discussion instead of managing the mechanics.
Keep participants focused and engaged
Each phase is revealed progressively, helping avoid overload and keeping attention on the current task.
Collaborate with internal and external participants
Teams, stakeholders, and clients can work together in the same space, contributing ideas and input throughout the session.
Capture outcomes from every phase
Ideas, decisions, and actions are recorded on the board, so workshop results are not lost after the session ends.
What are collaborative workshops?
Collaborative workshops are structured sessions where a group works through a defined process to achieve a specific outcome. These can include project kickoffs, design sprints, strategy sessions, post-mortems, and other multi-phase activities.
Workshops typically involve several stages — such as brainstorming, discussion, prioritisation, and decision-making — often with cross-functional teams or external participants contributing throughout.
How teams run collaborative workshops in Ludi
Start with a workshop template or custom board
Teams can choose a template or build a board with multiple activity frames to structure the session, giving participants a clear agenda before they join.
Guide participants through each phase
Each activity frame represents a phase of the workshop, helping the team move step by step through the process with a clear structure at every stage.
Reveal phases progressively
The host hides upcoming activities and reveals each phase as the workshop progresses, keeping participants focused on the current task without being distracted by what comes next.
Keep every phase focused and productive
Use different collaboration modes per phase
Private writing is used for ideation, group discussion for synthesis, and voting for decisions, so each phase uses the collaboration mode that works best for that type of activity.
Keep each phase timeboxed
Timers help manage time for each activity and keep the session on track, so the workshop finishes within the planned time without rushing the final phases.
Capture and share outcomes
Results are captured on the board, assigned as actions, or exported for sharing, ensuring that workshop outcomes are visible and actionable after the session ends.
