Thanks for the writeup, Fran!
Thanks Raul!
Yep! Producitiy is creating value, faster.
You've got a great system here Fran! 👏 Nice work
Thanks Akos!
Loved it :)
For me, it works to be very specific. I feel that 'prepare for a presentation' is quite generic, as preparing can be endless.
I would prefer a more concrete definition of done. For example, if it's a PowerPoint presentation I'm preparing, it can be:
- Have a draft ready to sent X for review, Or
- Finish the final rehearsal - not looking at the presentation again before the meeting
Yes! Those kind of things like "Preparing a presentation" can be seen as a project with many little tasks, instead of something you never finish.
Having a clear DoD also helps you feel you are making progress!
Start your day with the hardest task. The momentum you have from completing the hardest task on the list is crucial. It sets the tone for the day.
Great article, Fran! 🙌
