Task+Sharing

= Task Sharing tool =

= Problem statement = The CKM team has no common way of sharing tasks across the group. Yammer is our enterprise social network and it goes a long way to create awareness about ongoing work. However, it lacks a task management feature. So far Yammer largely cloned Facebook features. The resulting social graph is centred on relationships and on enabling communication. While there is nothing wrong with that a ‘work graph’ would also include other objects such as projects, tasks, documnets, deadlines, etc around which work is organized.

= Requirements = Work alongside Yammer Keep it simple and lighweight Plays well with timesheets Lightweight Could be a ‘log’

= Opportunities = Make work visible and transparent Limit work in progress Better workflow management

= Concerns = Could be misused as control tool

= Next steps: = List requirements Select tools for comparison Choose a platform to pilot an experiment with a small team, e.g.: 1 month without email

Here is a first draft of a weighted scoring model.
