用思維導(dǎo)圖做開(kāi)會(huì)記錄的新手指南
思維導(dǎo)圖又叫心智圖,是表達(dá)發(fā)射性思維的有效的圖形思維工具 ,它簡(jiǎn)單卻又極其有效,是一種革命性的思維工具。思維導(dǎo)圖運(yùn)用圖文并重的技巧,把各級(jí)主題的關(guān)系用相互隸屬與相關(guān)的層級(jí)圖表現(xiàn)出來(lái),把主題關(guān)鍵詞與圖像、顏色等建立記憶鏈接。思維導(dǎo)圖充分運(yùn)用左右腦的機(jī)能,利用記憶、閱讀、思維的規(guī)律,協(xié)助人們?cè)诳茖W(xué)與藝術(shù)、邏輯與想象之間平衡發(fā)展,從而開(kāi)啟人類(lèi)大腦的無(wú)限潛能。思維導(dǎo)圖因此具有人類(lèi)思維的強(qiáng)大功能。
Do you have trouble keeping up with meetings because you can't take notes as fast as the speaker talks? If you do jot down some thoughts and ideas, by the time you re-read your notes they make no sense? If this sounds like you, a meeting mind map may be just what you need. Here is a quick start guide that will give you some pointers and a printable template you can use to get off to a great start with mind mapping.
你因?yàn)橛浌P記的速度跟不上講演者講的速度而無(wú)法跟上會(huì)議進(jìn)程過(guò)么?又或者你草草記下一些觀點(diǎn)和想法,但回頭看這些筆記時(shí)卻發(fā)現(xiàn)完全看不懂了?如果這就是你,開(kāi)會(huì)思維導(dǎo)圖就是你所需要的。這里是一個(gè)快速的入門(mén)指南,提供一些你可以在開(kāi)始入門(mén)使用思維導(dǎo)圖時(shí)使用的概念和可打印的模板。
First, a few concepts—many of these will come clear as you read through the article:
首先,一些概念——當(dāng)你讀完這整篇文章,它們會(huì)慢慢更清楚了:
Mind mapping is a free flowing tool. There are no rights or wrongs to the process. Many people recommend using many different colored pens and drawing pictures. This may or may not be for you—yet anyway. The important thing is just to start. You can refine your mind mapping method as you go.
思維導(dǎo)圖是一個(gè)使用自由的工具,應(yīng)用中沒(méi)什么對(duì)或錯(cuò)。許多人推薦使用許多不同顏色的筆和畫(huà)圖畫(huà),你可以那樣也可以不,怎樣都好。重要的是開(kāi)始使用。你可以邊用邊完善你做思維導(dǎo)圖的方式。
Mind mapping is designed to use both sides of your brain—mind mapping involves your right and left brain thinking. The colors and picture drawing are the creative side, the note taking is the analytical side. By involving both sides of your brain you get better retention, more free-flowing ideas and maintain concentration.
做思維導(dǎo)圖是設(shè)計(jì)用來(lái)同時(shí)使用你兩邊大腦的——做思維導(dǎo)圖包括了左右腦思考。色彩和畫(huà)圖是創(chuàng)意的一半,做筆記則是分析的一半。通過(guò)讓兩邊大腦都參與,你會(huì)獲得更好的記憶力、產(chǎn)生更多新穎想法和也更好保持專(zhuān)注。
Only a few simple graphics will get you started:
一點(diǎn)簡(jiǎn)單的圖形就能開(kāi)始:
o An arrow from one item to another indicates that one idea flows from one item to another
o An arrow pointing both ways indicates the subjects are of equal value and relate to one another
o A box or idea with no arrow is a floating topic. This is typically an important idea but off topic. It basically hovers outside your map but is there in case you need it.
o 一個(gè)箭頭從一項(xiàng)指向另一項(xiàng)意味著從一個(gè)想法引向另一個(gè)。
o 一個(gè)箭頭同時(shí)指向兩邊意味著它們同樣重要且有關(guān)。
o 沒(méi)有箭頭的一個(gè)方框或點(diǎn)子是一個(gè)浮主題。通常是一個(gè)重要但和主題無(wú)關(guān)的點(diǎn)子。它基本上盤(pán)旋在你地圖之外但在你需要時(shí)它就那里。
To get started mind mapping a meeting, get the agenda ahead of time if possible.
要用思維導(dǎo)圖記錄一次會(huì)議請(qǐng)?zhí)崆澳梅輹?huì)議議程,如果可以的話。
In the center of your mind map, write the main topic of the meeting:
在你的思維導(dǎo)圖中央,寫(xiě)上這次會(huì)議的主題。
From this central idea all the sub-topics will flow. So outward from the center, you would write in the sub-agenda items. It doesn't matter what order you choose to list these. Mind mapping considers each idea equal until you change it later. So the first level of the sub-agenda items might look like this:
所有次要主題都從這個(gè)主題分流出去,從中間向外寫(xiě)下那些次要的議程項(xiàng)目,無(wú)所謂你按什么順序列出來(lái)。在你稍后更改前,思維導(dǎo)圖默認(rèn)各個(gè)項(xiàng)目都是并列的。于是,第一層的次主題可能看上去象這樣:
You now have a basic mind map of your meeting. This is a clear overview of your meeting from start to finish. If someone brings up an unrelated topic, you would simply make that a floating sub-topic. It may be important, but it's unrelated. These can be thoughts of yours or something someone else says. Here's an example:
現(xiàn)在你有了會(huì)議的思維導(dǎo)圖基礎(chǔ),從開(kāi)始到結(jié)束有了一個(gè)清晰的概要。如果有人提出一個(gè)無(wú)關(guān)的話題,你應(yīng)該把它做成一個(gè)浮副標(biāo)。這很重要,因?yàn)樗?和主題)無(wú)關(guān)的。這可以是你的想法或其他人說(shuō)的,例如:
Mind Mapping in Action
實(shí)際使用中的思維導(dǎo)圖
As people present ideas and concepts at the meeting, simply draw off a branch from the sub-agenda items and write a main idea. You can choose to circle the idea, draw a picture around it (like a star) to emphasize important points. If you feel like doodling next to an idea, by all means doodle. Remember mind mapping is designed to get you thinking from both your left and right brain. The doodles keep the creative mind active while the analytical handles the notes.
當(dāng)人們?cè)跁?huì)議中提出看法和概念時(shí),從次要議程中畫(huà)出分支記下重點(diǎn)即可。你可以在觀點(diǎn)上畫(huà)圈、在它上面畫(huà)個(gè)小圖(比如一個(gè)星號(hào))來(lái)強(qiáng)調(diào)它是重要的觀點(diǎn)。當(dāng)你想在一個(gè)觀點(diǎn)旁涂鴉的時(shí)候,盡管做。記住,思維導(dǎo)圖法是設(shè)計(jì)用來(lái)調(diào)動(dòng)你左右腦同時(shí)思考,涂鴉使用創(chuàng)造思維而做筆記使用分析思維。
In the image above you see the star drawn around the joint venture idea. This might represent an idea I think is a great way to improve the budget. If I have sub ideas from there, I can simply draw branches off from that idea into sub ideas.
上面這幅圖里,在合資的想法外畫(huà)了個(gè)星,這可能代表了一個(gè)我認(rèn)為很不錯(cuò)的增加預(yù)算的辦法。如果我從那兒又有了進(jìn)一步的想法,我可以輕易地從這里畫(huà)出分支寫(xiě)下進(jìn)一步想法。
Personally, if someone says something that is important to a topic, subtopic or idea I like to draw a branch off from that item and write in their name and then branch off from their name. If you've ever had to explain who said what when this is an excellent way to track back and credit the right people.
我的習(xí)慣是如果有人針對(duì)某個(gè)話題講了什么重要的東西,我會(huì)從該主題或副主題畫(huà)出一個(gè)分支,寫(xiě)上他們的名字,然后從他們名字支出去記下觀點(diǎn)。如果你曾經(jīng)必須解釋誰(shuí)、什么時(shí)候說(shuō)了什么,這就是一個(gè)追溯、表?yè)P(yáng)說(shuō)對(duì)的人的好辦法。
In traditional note taking, many of these sub ideas and can be lost or forgotten (buried under larger concepts). Mind mapping makes the ideas stick out.
傳統(tǒng)的筆記記錄里,許多這類(lèi)次級(jí)的想法會(huì)丟失或忘記(被大量更大的概念覆蓋)。思維導(dǎo)圖令它們顯露出來(lái)。
Tip: Don't be afraid to link one sub item to a totally different agenda item. Simply draw a line with or without an arrow linking one thought to another.
小技巧:別不敢把一個(gè)次要項(xiàng)目聯(lián)向一個(gè)完全不同的議程項(xiàng)目。輕松地畫(huà)一條有箭頭或沒(méi)箭頭的線把一個(gè)想法和另一個(gè)關(guān)聯(lián)起來(lái)。
How to use the Meeting Mind Mapping Template
如何使用會(huì)議思維導(dǎo)圖模板
Download a PDF mind mapping template that you can use for meetings, small projects or even projects around your house. You'll need PDF reader software to view it; we recommend the free FoxIt Reader (Mac users, you have the built-in Preview.app). I suggest you print it in landscape mode so you have enough room to work.
下載一個(gè)可以用于會(huì)議、小項(xiàng)目或甚至只是你家房子改建的思維導(dǎo)圖模板。你需要PDF閱讀軟件來(lái)瀏覽這個(gè)模板,我們推薦免費(fèi)的FOXIT閱讀器(MAC用戶可以用內(nèi)嵌的preview.app)。我建議橫幅打印,這樣可以有足夠的空白去寫(xiě)。
To use it for a meeting:
用于會(huì)議:
1. Write the main idea in the center box.
2. Write each agenda item in the circles linked to the outside of the main idea.
3. As the meeting progresses, draw lines pointing to sub-thoughts, ideas, facts and figures.
4. Draw pictures and interlink items with or without arrows.
1. 把主題寫(xiě)在中央方框
2. 把各項(xiàng)議程寫(xiě)在連著主題的外面一層圓圈里。
3. 隨著會(huì)議推進(jìn),畫(huà)線寫(xiě)下次級(jí)的看法、點(diǎn)子、事實(shí)和數(shù)據(jù)。
4. 畫(huà)圖畫(huà),并在項(xiàng)目間畫(huà)帶箭頭或不帶箭頭的連線。
To use the Mind Mapping Template for a home improvement project:
用于家庭改建項(xiàng)目:
1. Write the main goal of the project in the center box.
2. Write sub categories in the circles linked to the outside of the main idea. (Categories such as budget, supplies needed, when to do it, and hire contractor? are some common categories for a home improvement project.)
3. Just like with meetings, expand each category with ideas, facts and figures by drawing a branch and writing the idea.
1. 把主要目標(biāo)寫(xiě)進(jìn)中央方框
2. 把各項(xiàng)次分類(lèi)寫(xiě)在連著主目標(biāo)的外面一層圓圈里。(比如預(yù)算、需要的供應(yīng)、什么時(shí)候做、雇承包商?以及其他一個(gè)家里改建項(xiàng)目所需的常見(jiàn)分類(lèi)。)
3. 跟開(kāi)會(huì)一樣,在每個(gè)分類(lèi)下用畫(huà)分支和寫(xiě)點(diǎn)子來(lái)擴(kuò)展出點(diǎn)子、事實(shí)和數(shù)據(jù)。
After you've made your first few mind maps, you'll see how much more organized you'll feel. Mind mapping helps unlock your creative mind so you aren't forgetting details or losing those little tidbits of information that make or break a project. Mind mapping will make you more effective during meetings because you'll be able to understand the concepts and interlink them in new ways. Where everyone else is sitting bored and clock watching, you can be an active part of the meeting. It might just get you a raise.
在你完成首批思維導(dǎo)圖后,你會(huì)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己感到更有組織力了。使用思維導(dǎo)圖能釋放你的創(chuàng)造思維,這樣你就不會(huì)忘記細(xì)節(jié)或丟失那些執(zhí)行或改變一個(gè)項(xiàng)目的信息小片段。使用思維導(dǎo)圖能讓你在會(huì)議中更有效率,因?yàn)槟阌靡环N全新的方式去理解概念以及他們之間的關(guān)系。當(dāng)其他人都無(wú)聊地坐在那里不停看時(shí)間時(shí),你會(huì)成為會(huì)議的一個(gè)積極參與者,這可能給你帶來(lái)升職哦。
