Organised workspace best practices

As you set up your Notion space, here’s some things we recommend to keep organised:

  • Keep your sidebar minimal, everyone will see the pages in your teamspace’s sidebar.

    • Create spaces for the main areas of your organisation, like marketing, design or engineering.

  • Favourite the pages that frequently visit so they’re always easily accessible.

    • Remember to remove favourites once they no longer serve a purpose.

  • Create a personal dashboard page where you can keep track of work tasks, upcoming appointments and more.

  • Use databases for any recurring pages you find yourself creating so they can maintain a consistent format. This ensures that as you scale, you won’t be left with a mess.

Assignment

Start with a personal dashboard

Start thinking about organisation by creating your own personal dashboard in your private section. Use linked databases to keep track of company-wide tasks and meetings that you’re tagged in.
