Between the uptick in remote work, more frequent layoffs and team reorgs, and the pressure to do more with less, internal organization has taken a beat. This is rarely intentional, but let’s face it: the work continues to compound and sometimes, that snowballs into a situation where we ask ourselves, “how did we get here?”
So how do we get internal organization back on track? It’s not as common anymore to walk down the hallway to your colleague’s office if you have a quick question. Today, most teams are spread out all over the country, and even across the globe. Yes, we have e-mail, Slack, and other chat tools - but those tools are still disconnected from the paper trail that is attached to your projects and deliverables. And for those who aren’t always using technology to capture information (yes, we’re referring to the sticky note addicts and notepad aficionados), some of this data literally might be spread out all over the place.
If you’re trying to clean up your internal organization, a good place to start would be to invest in a tool that houses everything in one central location, such as monday.com. If you’re unfamiliar with this type of technology, start with an intro call and get to know the technology through a demo - we can help with that :)
Once you’re live, approach the platform in baby steps: perhaps start with building out a short-term content calendar or campaign plan. Start adding individual deliverables in there, assign owners and timelines, and then graduate to additional features, such as advanced workflows and automation. As you get more comfortable, migrate your annual sales strategy or marketing plan into monday.com, or any other significant initiatives you want to track over a long period of time.
If you’re over the mess and ready to take that first step in hitting the reset button, we’d love to chat. Technology doesn’t have to be daunting - it can actually do wonders to simplify your life, and at the end of the day, it will save your business time and money!
