A brief introduction to Poisson geometry

Abstract
These notes are based on an introductory minicourse on Poisson geometry given at CRM, Barcelona, in July 2022. They mostly contain foundational material, including motivating questions and key examples of Poisson structures, and highlight some recent tools and developments. The text is largely structured through exercises that lead readers to the desired conclusions, so it serves as a guided introduction to the basics of Poisson geometry.
