The handoff

A daily list of matching birthdays with a reminder draft awaiting approval of its details and destination.

Keep in mind

Birthdays are personal information, and a mistaken date or unexpected audience can be uncomfortable. Use only contacts whose details are appropriate for this purpose, restrict access to the list, verify the date and wording, and have a person approve the exact reminder and team destination before it is shared.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Confirm which contacts may be included

Identify the contact-list owner and confirm that birthday reminders are appropriate for everyone in scope.

Choose the daily check time

Set a suitable time for preparing the day’s reminders and account for the team’s local time zone.

Limit access to personal details

Give the contact list and proposed reminders only to people who need them for this purpose.

Assign reminder reviewers

Name who checks each birthday and approves the final wording and destination before sharing.
