Do you have the core 7?

It was high on a mountain above Lake Tahoe that I drew the first sketches of the platform I had pined for, during years of consulting projects, and then as a multinational manager.

I wrote these seven core needs for successful project work from my experiences to keep me on the right path:

1. I want to know what I have to do.
2. I want to know what my team has to do.
3. I want to know what we need to do in the future.
4. I want to know what we did in the past.
5. I want to know anything that is falling behind.
6. I want to be able to share a file with the person sat next to me.
7. I want to be able to message the person sat next to me.

Think about how basic those desires are. Now think whether you can achieve all of them easily.

It's crazy, but even in 2018, 99% of the teams I see fall short somewhere on that list.

You and your team deserve better. It's time that we all had access to the basics at work.

Feedback always welcome! Are those your core 7?
