Re-use Persona's across Boards
Is there a way to share Personas across multiple boards? Working on a bigger system, multiple story maps will have the same person's.
Currently they need to be duplicated for every board manually.

This would be helpful for larger product teams using the same persona across multiple products.

I'm a new user to Stories on Board so unsure how important this will be to us. I can see us having a number of boards and sharing personas would be useful however.

Yes, I just raised this with support.
Personas are hideously broken at the moment and need some love... -

Maybe try exporting the board, then importing only the personas when creating the new board?

It's the first thing I noticed, I need it to work with this product

I just encountered this need, too. I just spent a couple of hours updating personas in two different boards, and then making one of them into an empty "template" board so future projects get a little help with it. But that workaround doesn't solve propagating updates to personas into existing boards.

Yes I love this idea. Much needed! Loving this tool so far in general.

Agreed - we have many stories but a somewhat finite set of personas that use our platform. I want to ensure we're all talking about the same "person" as we build out our maps. Would be great if it was just a single repository of personas and they could be "members" of various (not just one) groups.
So, when I need the "consumer" group, I can access those - when I need the suppliers group, I can access those, and sometimes, maybe I need everyone.
Thanks.
