COMINDWORK: Talk: Effective Time Management with Comindwork
In my previous post about time management tips, I gave you a couple hints about time management. Lets take a quick look how Comindwork could help you to manage time more effectively. - Deadlines - manage your deadlines effectively with Comindwork, milestones and project tasks (cases) will be your best friends getting organized, ready and prepared for deadlines. Remember that any task that hasn't got an exact or approximate deadline will get lost, till it won't become critical and remind of itself. Give every task a deadline!
- Meetings - usually there are lots of project meetings that aren't actually needed at all. Comindwork will help you to decrease the amount of needed meetings: project blogs is a great place to share project news and announcements, every task and wiki document (page) has a talk page where details can be discussed and all this is instantly available through a password protected RSS feed. For the needed meetings, Comindwork will help you to make them more effective: before a meeting create a wiki page with a short agenda in advance (everyone will get instantly notified through the RSS feed), put a short summary of the meeting after it's done, so that no one needs to make notes and so that the decisions made, the knowledge shared would be available for the team later on, at anytime (it's simple and easy using wiki feature)
- Paperwork - I think that everybody hates it, our online project management tool will help you to keep all your documents, files, questionnaires, reports etc. online, available 24/7 and safe (backups are performed couple times a day). You'll not only save money by reducing your costs related to paperwork, apart from that you'll create your own knowledge base!
- Panning - planning isn't urgent, but it's important! The busier you are, the better your planning skills should be, because without planning you'll be just wasting part of your precious time. Try to have a day planned at least one day before.
- Interruptions - it's almost impossible to eliminate them, but you need to decrease their number if you want to stay effective. Comindwork dashboards come in very handy here. You won't need to make a couple phone calls, read a bunch of papers and emails to get in context of the project - quick view on the project dashboard and you'll know what was happening for the last couple days: milestones, tasks assigned, new documents, changes and more. And you don't need to sit in the office, with Comindwork you get the job done when and where it is convenient for you.
