DAILY WORK ORGANIZATION · Workflow idea

Start the day with your important messages, reading, and tasks in one view.

Prepare a daily overview from the messages, publications, and pending tasks a person has chosen to follow. Keep the source and priority visible so the reader can decide what deserves attention, and review the contents and recipients before the digest is emailed or forwarded.

Prepare a private daily work digest

The handoff

A concise daily overview of recent messages, reading, and open tasks, prepared for the intended person to review.

Keep in mind

A digest can omit context or reveal private messages and tasks to the wrong audience. Include only approved sources and necessary details, keep the digest private, and require a person to approve the exact contents and recipients before forwarding or sharing it. Any change to an account or paid task should be reviewed and approved separately.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Select personal sources and review time

Choose the information sources, time window, and time of day that work for the reader.

Define useful digest sections

Decide how messages, reading, and tasks should be grouped and what details are appropriate to show.

Protect private information

Limit access to the intended reader and exclude sensitive material that is not needed for planning.

Check empty, busy, and sensitive days

Review different kinds of daily activity and confirm no digest is sent to an unapproved recipient.
