An Icebreaker Question is a prompt designed to spark connection and engagement for new members joining a Mighty Network. It’s the first interactive element new members see when joining a Space.

How It Works

The Icebreaker Question is pinned at the top of the Space’s Feed. New members must answer the question before they can fully post in the Space, creating an intentional, meaningful first interaction.

Setting Up an Icebreaker Question

To set up an Icebreaker Question:
  1. Enable the Feed Feature in a specific Space
  2. Add a direct, engaging question that encourages sharing
  3. Preview and manage the question as needed

Example Icebreaker Questions

Here are some effective Icebreaker Questions to inspire you:
  • “What’s one thing you want to get from a community of peers?”
  • “What is your #1 goal for this year?”
  • “Where do you want to be in five years?”
  • “What’s one new thing you tried today? How’d it go?”
