Design
The CFO Daily will be taking tomorrow and Friday off for the US Thanksgiving holiday.
And since today feels like a Friday, we're switching things up this week:
The Friday Wednesday Finance Break
If you've ever nerded out about Time Management,
You've probably heard of the 4 D’s for managing an overwhelming To Do list:
Do: For quick tasks, just get it done
Defer: Pause things that aren’t urgent
Delegate: Reassign tasks you don’t like to others
Delete: Remove unnecessary tasks
I have one to add:
Design.
Here’s why:
As founders, we have a freedom many do not:
We created our working world.
And what we created,
We can change.
Is your company designed to generate the kinds of To Do items that you and your team actually enjoy doing?
Because you can delegate the annoying stuff,
If you can afford it,
But it might be a better and cheaper idea
To just redesign the company
That you built
To be less annoying.
Enjoy the holiday, and see you next week!
