Closing The Gap Between Tasks And Todo's

Closing The Gap Between Tasks And Todo's

By:


The workplace is more complex that it needs to be, because Tasks and ToDos are poorly connected. Tasks are what needs to be completed and a list of ToDos detail how a task will be done.

Normally tasks are managed by managers and ToDos are managed on various lists by the teams and individuals doing the tasks. The connection between Tasks and ToDos is best explained by considering the following typical process.

The usual process is:
A person is made responsible to complete a task
The person responsible decides whose assistance they need to get the task done
The people involved collaborate to create a list of actions required to complete the task
Each person records (usually on paper) the specific actions they need to do to complete the task
Each person then adds their actions to their personal ToDo list so they dont forget

This typical process highlights the gap between Tasks and ToDos. Bridging the gap between Tasks and ToDos relies on all the people involved maintaining links between them. This is relatively easy for one task, but most people in the workplace are involved in many tasks.

Maintaining the links between Tasks and ToDos is complex hard work that is rarely done effectively. Consequently there is an urgent need for a solution that automatically keeps Tasks and ToDos synchronized. This will reduce personal stress, increase productivity and reduce the high risk of people forgetting to do an action required to complete a task.

TASKey has spent over 12 years developing and validating a solution that can create continuous links from Tasks to ToDos. The solution makes it easy to link corporate plans and strategies to operations and projects and then to the Tasks and ToDos people are actually doing. By eliminating gaps between Tasks and ToDos, real-time reporting based on what is actually happening (ToDos being completed) can be easily achieved.

Using web software to close the gap between Tasks and ToDos has made the solution easy to apply globally. Users need little training, because all the complex synchronization required to eliminate the gaps between Tasks and ToDos is done automatically by the software.
