Make work visible!
The average person has 46 thoughts per minute... Maths was never my strong point, but that's something like 70,000 thoughts per day!
If you are like me - remembering kids football practice, what to cook for dinner, what workout I'm doing tomorrow and a hundred and one things for work at any time - how do we manage all this?
I make it visible! There is something so good about getting whatever is in your mental to-do list out of your head, onto paper and then visualising it. It's amazing the amount of times I'll write the list and then reconsider the order!
A few years back when I was working with a policy team within a Government Department, they were generally swamped with work tasks and couldn't see space or time to innovate, so we started scribbling. The waste and duplication quickly became apparent and we discussed in length how to address this within the organisation, developing a plan to move forward and eliminate waste.
If you are looking to create a high performance team or wanting to make improvements within your organisation to reduce waste and duplication of tasks, start by making it visible.
