New in Slack Project Management: UDN Task Manager for Slack is here!
The pyramids are one of the wonders of the world – magnificent and complicated. Archeologists still argue how the Egyptians managed to build such a masterpiece.
How about the Great Wall of China? The Emperor had employed millions of people in its construction: soldiers, common people, and criminals.
The emperor sure did know how to make the most of his resources. Something only a great project manager could do – would do – should do. You decide.
Today, each one of us is a project manager. We might not pay attention to it, but even our smallest chores need and some of us have mastered the skill of it because we are all responsible for things to be done – and mostly these things work like milestones for the bigger bricks.
Project Management and Multitasking:
Each era has witnessed its own state of project management techniques evolving over time.
In today’s digital world, there are many apps for getting through the workday. The Internet offers a plethora of platforms for team communication, task management, and email coordination, all pertaining to your needs.
These platforms have further streamlined multitasking. The ability to do multiple things at the same time is now no big deal. Working on multiple applications for work and personal needs is now considered a usual thing. Unfortunately, statistics don’t give a happy number regarding people that are actually proficient at it: only 2%.
On the one hand, everything seems defined. You know which app is for what. On the other, a number of apps opened at the same time can get confusing and constant juggling between apps can result in mental exhaustion. After all, we’re all humans at the end of the day!
Switching between apps also results in a wastage of time. Unfortunately, as much as 40% of productivity is lost just by task switching.
