Workaholics of the world: start working smarter instead of keeping yourself up all night working on a project.

For general tidying up, however, I think it works well to be all over the map. Hence, the walkabout tidy-up. In fact, it’s important not to sit down because you don’t want to start reading that magazine you just picked up (no reading while standing!). Usually, that’s good advice.

It’s a larger square divided up into four smaller squares. Anticipating bottlenecks and breakdowns, holdups and hand-offs, helps us line up tasks in a meaningful sequence.

One thing that has been a real game changer for us is weekly sprints. Mid-week the manager has a quick meeting to check up to see if everything is on track. At the start of the week, we assign tasks to each member with a team lead following their progress and helping them with their issues.
