The handoff

A clearly labeled set of supplied details, with unanswered questions and uncertain values left visible for review.

Keep in mind

Organized values are not necessarily verified facts. Check the source and confirm important details before using them to change a record, contact someone, or make a commitment.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose the information to collect

List the values needed for the specific task and avoid gathering unrelated personal or business details.

Agree on labels and formats

Use consistent names and formats so teammates can recognize what each value means.

Set rules for missing information

Decide which gaps need clarification and who can confirm uncertain or conflicting details.

Test with sample requests

Check a complete example, a missing value, and inconsistent details to ensure each is made clear for review.

Put your next idea to work.
