Work Practices

Creating work that actually works

We work in three primary ways – alone, together, or in turns. When these modalities are in balance, work flows smoothly. But too often, we’re out of sync. A disproportionate amount of time is spent in redundant or ineffective meetings. Asynchronous collaboration is inefficient and harder than it should be. Focus time is pushed to the edges and often wasted on email rather than true strategic work.

Simple shifts in mindsets and practices can produce big changes. We help teams and organizations identify and implement more effective collaborative norms and practices to:

  • Right-size meeting loads and make the meetings that do happen a good use of time
  • Create time for focused, priority work
  • Reduce the friction and frustrations that often accompany asynchronous collaboration
