  • Scope a job before you start

    List everything a job could involve, decide what is in and out, say what done looks like in a way you can check by looking, and set when to stop, all on one page.

    Each "done" can be checked by looking, not by feeling

    About 15 minutes. Anyone who gets open-ended requests, such as coordinators, assistants and team leads.

  • Hand off a task to someone else

    Turn a task you do in your head into a plain hand-off for another person, with the materials listed, the steps written, nothing sensitive left in, and a fresh reader's questions answered.

    A fresh reader lists anything missing; nothing sensitive left in

    About 20 minutes. Anyone who hands work to someone else, whether a colleague, a new hire, a volunteer or a part-time helper.
