What are mind maps
Every other detective series has a board with case materials. Photos, notes, maps and other things are connected by threads that show relationships between people, places and events. The detective looks at this board for a long time, suddenly shouts “Eureka” and runs to expose the criminal.
Such a board with materials is a mind map, that is, thoughts organized in a graphic diagram. These diagrams are also called mindmaps (from the English mind map), mind maps or mental maps.

Where are mind maps used?
A mind map is useful when there is a large amount of information. With its help, you can organize and group data and thoughts, find new ideas, and estimate the amount of work.
Design
Mind maps are great for working on projects of any size. For example, at SendPulse we use mindmaps to design automated email chains.

With maps it is especially convenient to draw any scenarios - you literally lay out every step before your eyes, you can easily change and combine them, go through them and not get confused in the stages.
Education
A large amount of information is difficult to wrap your head around. For example, you decided to take a course in marketing, but you just can’t remember all the areas of marketing, their tools and goals. Use mind maps and everything will fall into place. Of course, if you practice at the same time
