Which template should I start with?
Try Swimlane Process Map when ownership matters, Service Blueprint when frontstage and backstage work differ, or Flowchart Starter for a simple sequence.
Does drawing a process automate it?
No. The board makes the workflow visible for discussion. Any automation needs separate implementation and validation.
