The use of a planning tool is an imperative, especially when aiming to bring project success and effective task management. Mind mapping is a technique that is greatly appreciated and widely used, especially when approaching the project planning process in project management. According to Tony Buzan (the inventor of modern mind mapping) “a mind map is a powerful graphic technique which provides a universal key to unlock the potential of the brain. It harnesses the full range of cortical skills – word, image, number, logic, rhythm, color and spatial awareness – in a single, uniquely powerful manner.” (Tony Buzan, “What is a Mind Map?) In the 2014 Biggerplate report, project planning was declared as second most performed task with the usage of mind mapping (around 55%) while brainstorming came first place with 77% from the survey responds.
