Project 𝗥𝗘𝗪𝗢𝗥𝗞 ⤵️ 30-40%. 𝗡𝗢 new hires. 𝗡𝗢 new tools.

Your team is talented...but your process may not be.

Vague requests arrive ➔ Meetings get called to decode them ➔ Decisions stall ➔ REWORK follows ➔ The whole cycle repeats next sprint

Nobody planned to waste the week. The workflow made them do it.

Brian Galardo, Program Manager and Ops Excellence at Salesforce, broke that loop using 3 things many teams already have.

1) a structured Slack intake form
2) a shared tracker
3) artificial intelligence (aka AI)

Before any request touched someone’s calendar, it had to include the problem statement, impacted users, and urgency level.

Then AI summarized the request, flagged missing context, surfaced risks, and suggested routing.

Teams reviewed asynchronously.

By the time everyone met, they weren't decoding the request; they were making decisions.

The 𝗥𝗘𝗦𝗨𝗟𝗧?

Review meetings were cut roughly in half. ✂️

𝙍𝙀𝙒𝙊𝙍𝙆 𝙙𝙧𝙤𝙥𝙥𝙚𝙙 𝙗𝙮 𝙖𝙣 𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙚𝙙 30 𝙩𝙤 40%.

Back-and-forth clarification decreased because expectations were clearer before work started.

𝗡𝗢 complex agent build. 𝗡𝗢 shiny new platform. 𝗡𝗢 “digital transformation” theater.

Just a cleaner workflow.

And that's the part most teams miss.

Automation doesn't fix messy processes.
It amplifies whatever is already there.

Because if ownership is unclear, automation creates faster confusion. And if inputs are vague, automation creates faster rework.

On the other hand, if the process is clear, automation creates speed, visibility, and momentum.

So, before you automate anything, answer these questions —

► Who owns this?
► What does a good outcome look like?
► What information must arrive before work starts?

Get these right and AI can handle the prep.

Humans still make the calls though.

And that's the real unlock.

Remember...the best automation doesn't replace people. It protects judgment from admin work.

Ok, over to you.

📍 What's one manual, repetitive workflow your team still runs every week that should've been automated by now? And why?

Tasks with no clear owner do not get done well. They get 𝙙𝙤𝙣𝙚 𝙗𝙮 𝙬𝙝𝙤𝙚𝙫𝙚𝙧 𝙛𝙚𝙚𝙡𝙨 𝙜𝙪𝙞𝙡𝙩𝙮 𝙚𝙣𝙤𝙪𝙜𝙝.
How clearly does each person on your team know what they own?

Build ownership across your team by —

♦ Hold ownership conversations

♦ Never rescue without a debrief

♦ Praise ownership behaviour publicly

♦ Let owners decide how, not just what

♦ Assign one name to every deliverable

When people truly own their work, quality and accountability rise together. Ownership is not assigned through a task list. It is cultivated through trust and consistent reinforcement.

📍 How will you strengthen ownership on your team today?

Risks do not disappear when you ignore them. They 𝙜𝙧𝙤𝙬 𝙦𝙪𝙞𝙚𝙩𝙡𝙮 𝙪𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙡 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙗𝙚𝙘𝙤𝙢𝙚 𝙘𝙧𝙞𝙨𝙚𝙨.
How early does your team surface risks before they become blockers?

Manage risk proactively by —

🔵 Review risks in weekly standups

🔵 Assign an owner to each identified risk

🔵 Build a simple risk log on every

🔵 Reward the team for flagging issues early

🔵 Create a response plan before risks activate

The projects that fail are rarely hit by surprise. They are hit by risks that were visible but never discussed. Surfacing them early is what separates great project managers from reactive ones.

📍 What risk will you make visible on your current project today?

Most meetings are not too long. They are 𝙩𝙤𝙤 𝙪𝙣𝙘𝙡𝙚𝙖𝙧 𝙖𝙗𝙤𝙪𝙩 𝙬𝙝𝙮 𝙩𝙝𝙚𝙮 𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙨𝙩.
What would your team's week look like with half the meetings and twice the clarity?

Run better meetings by —

► End with clear owners and deadlines

► State the meeting goal in the first minute

► Send the agenda at least one hour before

► Cancel any meeting without a clear purpose

► Keep it to the people who truly need to be there

A great meeting creates momentum. A poor one drains the energy your team needs to do real work.

📍 How will you design a better meeting this week?

You cannot create more hours. You can only decide 𝙬𝙝𝙞𝙘𝙝 𝙝𝙤𝙪𝙧𝙨 𝙜𝙤 𝙩𝙤 𝙬𝙝𝙖𝙩 𝙢𝙖𝙩𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙨 𝙢𝙤𝙨𝙩.
Are your team's daily actions actually aligned to your top priorities?

Manage priorities better with —

● Cut tasks that serve no clear objective

● Identify the top three deliverables weekly

● Review priorities every Monday as a team

● Protect high-priority work from interruptions

● Say no to additions without removing something

Busyness without priority alignment is just expensive noise. Teams that work on the right things consistently outperform those that simply work hard.

📍 How will you sharpen your team's priorities this week?

How aligned is your team before work actually begins?

Run a strong kickoff by —

♦ Confirm everyone understands the why

♦ Define success in one clear sentence

♦ Agree on roles before assigning tasks

♦ Set communication norms upfront

♦ Surface assumptions on day one

A strong kickoff saves weeks of rework and confusion down the line. The time you invest before work starts always returns with interest.

📍 How will you improve your next project kickoff?

𝐁𝐮𝐢𝐥𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐨𝐣𝐞𝐜𝐭 𝐝𝐚𝐬𝐡𝐛𝐨𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐮𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦.

Replace vanity metric walls with single-pane-of-glass views that spark decisions instead of confusion or endless questions.

How do you stop stakeholders from asking “where are we?” every single day?

Create decision-grade dashboards with these design rules —

📎 Review and prune outdated widgets every month

📎 Separate executive summary from drill-down tabs

📎 Choose 5–7 KPIs max, no more “everything” boards

📎 Make red/yellow/green automatically trigger next actions

📎 Include trend arrows and forecast lines, not just snapshots

Drive clarity by building project dashboards that actually inform. Insight over noise.

📍 How will you build project dashboards that actually inform?

𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐦𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐞 𝐯𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐫 𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐧𝐦𝐞𝐧𝐭.

Eliminate the blame game between internal teams and external partners by creating shared visibility, joint accountability, and mutual success metrics from day one.

How do you stop vendor delays from cascading into your entire project?

Align external players with these coordination plays —

✅ Document assumptions and escalation paths in one living agreement

✅ Schedule bi-weekly syncs focused only on blockers and wins

✅ Tie payments to jointly agreed milestones, not just invoices

✅ Co-create a joint RACI and success dashboard upfront

✅ Run joint retros at end of each major phase

Accelerate outcomes by streamlining vendor and partner alignment. One team, zero finger-pointing.

📍 How will you streamline vendor and partner alignment?
