Management Routines (3/7): Standardize Tools and
Processes
Often personal
time is lost “fighting fires” and duplicating
effort. To minimize these time wasters, standardize
as many tools, models, and processes possible.
- This will keep
you from “reinventing the wheel” each time
these items are needed.
- Ensure you keep
them flexible in order to modify them when
necessary.
- Areas to consider
standardizing:
- Meeting ground
rules, § Problem solving models and
forms
- Project request
forms, planning tools, worksheets,
- Development and
feedback discussions,
- Certain memos
and memo formats used on a regular
basis,
- Trouble-shooting
procedures,
- Customer
complaint procedures,
- Weekly/bi-weekly
project status reports and project update
meetings.
