Collaborating on Polls with Your Doodle Team
Once you've established a Doodle team, you can leverage its powerful features to collaborate on polls effectively. Team polls enable your group to gather feedback, schedule meetings, and make decisions efficiently. This article explains how to create, manage, and participate in team polls.
Creating a Team Poll
- Access Team Poll Creation: Within your Doodle team dashboard, locate the option to create a new poll. It might be labeled as "Create Poll," "New Poll," or something similar.
- Poll Title and Description: Give your poll a clear and descriptive title, and provide a brief description if needed.
- Poll Options: Enter the options for your poll. These could be dates, times, locations, or other choices you want the team to vote on.
- Visibility Settings: Choose the visibility level for your poll:
- Team-Only: Only team members can access and participate in the poll.
- Public: You can share the poll link with people outside the team.
Managing and Monitoring Team Polls
- Assign Roles: You can assign roles to team members for the poll, such as "Admin" (who can manage the poll) or "Member" (who can only respond).
- Monitor Responses: As team members respond, you'll be able to monitor the poll results and see how people are voting.
- Communicate Updates: Keep your team updated on the poll's progress and any decisions made based on the results.
- Set a Deadline (if necessary): For time-sensitive polls, set a deadline for response submissions.
Participating in Team Polls
- Respond to the Poll: Team members will receive notifications when new polls are created. They can access the poll and make their selections.
- View Results: Once responses are submitted, team members can usually access the poll results to see the current standings.
Tips for Effective Collaboration
- Clear Communication: Ensure that everyone understands the purpose of the poll and how their responses will be considered.
- Transparency: Make sure the poll results are clearly visible to team members, fostering open discussion and decision-making.
- Regular Updates: Provide periodic updates on the progress of the poll and any upcoming deadlines.
