There are a lot of critical management processes that can be significantly improved by using technology to automate all or parts of the process.  At TASKey and working with our clients, we have found that using software to automate and coordinate many enabling management processes saves time and effort, reduces stress, and achieves goals faster.

It can be argued that the greatest weakness in workplaces is the inability of relevant people to keep shared tasks and To Do’s synchronised. This inability wastes a lot of time and effort, causes stress, strains interpersonal relationships, and constrains productivity.

Most people use some form of a To Do list to remember and decide what they need to do next. The problem with To Do lists is they take a lot of time and effort to create and keep updated.  TASKey has developed smart To Do software that automatically keeps your To Do list synchronized with agreed plans, meeting actions and other relevant peoples’ To Do lists. 

Cultural change happens one person at a time, so everyone needs to know what is happening and what they need to do. Positive accountability ensures that each person knows what they need to do to contribute to organisational change and keeps relevant people informed about actual progress.

Achieving accountability is relatively simple for a single task. However as the number of tasks increases, achieving accountability becomes harder and harder. Unfortunately in the real world, most people are involved in many tasks, so a simple way to manage personal and organisational accountability is urgently need. The key is that all stakeholders know what is happening and what they need to do, with the complex accountability administration being automatically done for users.

How can we improve efficiency in our workplace? This is a common question being asked by many managers. Many say that improving efficiency is becoming harder and harder, because most of the easier solutions have been already implemented.  A relatively simple solution to significantly increase workplace efficiency is discussed.

  A major deficiency exists in workplace management – poor efficiency at the working level (that is operational, tactical, team and personal time management). The majority of the work on strategies, projects and larger tasks is done by teams and individuals at the working level.  A practical solution is urgently required to eliminate the poor alignment and poor coordination that causes significant inefficiencies and stress at the working level.

Project performance is simply an aggregation of the performance of project tasks. Therefore linking meaningful task performance to project schedules provides the critical information required by project managers to effectively manage their projects.

Change Management is becoming a growth industry involving many methods, tools and external consultants.  A simple tool is urgently needed that significantly reduces complexity by providing the right information to the right people at the right time, without the need for external assistance.
