Miksi käyttää Mindomo mind map -mallia?

Mielikarttojen avulla voit ideoida, luoda käsitteiden välisiä suhteita, organisoida ja tuottaa ideoita.

Mielikarttamallit tarjoavat kuitenkin helpomman tavan päästä alkuun, sillä ne ovat kehyksiä, jotka sisältävät tietoa tietystä aiheesta ja ohjaavia ohjeita. Pohjimmiltaan mindmap-mallit varmistavat rakenteen, jossa yhdistyvät kaikki tietyn aiheen elementit ja joka toimii lähtökohtana henkilökohtaiselle mindmapillesi. Ne ovat resurssi, joka tarjoaa käytännöllisen ratkaisun miellekartan luomiseen tietystä aiheesta, joko liike-elämää tai koulutusta varten.

Mindomo tuo sinulle älykkäitä miellekarttamalleja, joiden avulla voit toimia ja ajatella vaivattomasti.

Mallilla on erilaisia toimintoja:
