This is the common request of most people who need to contribute to a change. But it is rarely answered in enough detail for a person to know what is happening and what they need to do. Most changes are delivered top down in terms of broad direction with little detail on exactly what a person needs to do to contribute. Sometimes it is unclear if a person needs to do anything or even if they are affected. TASKey has found that the three key requirements to connect personal contributions to strategic change are: 1. A work breakdown structure (WBS) to provide context and fit tasks together. 2. A simple task plan template to hold list of actions 3. A personalised view of relevant task and action/ToDo’s Note: The key to maintain focus and security is for each person involved to only see relevant tasks from WBS and relevant actions from lists of actions. It has been suggested that project management’s work breakdown structure (WBS) provides a logical framework for connecting actions to strategies. However while WBS provides a great high level framework, it quickly becomes unmanageable at the personal action/ToDo level. TASKey has found a combination of WBS and flat lists of actions that define a simple work flow provides a workable way to connect actions to strategies. The glue that provides context and holds the WBS and list of actions together is a simple plan template. Unfortunately without knowing exactly what is required, people are more likely to focus on urgent work being sought by the people around them. So unless change contributions are clear, there is little chance of the work being done, until it becomes urgent (usually in the form of a crisis). The importance of explicit plans cannot be underestimated. Without plans people are forced to make it up as they go along. This is great for flexibility, but very inefficient way to get work done. However effective planning is not easy to do and sustain. TASKey has found that a one page plan template is an easy way for people to quickly develop and communicate powerful plans. TASKey’s 10 minute plan template has been used in over 175 countries by thousands of people. Most importantly, plan information must be presented from each person’s point of view. Otherwise most of us waste a lot of time and effort sorting out what is relevant to us and guessing what we need to do.
