We are starting with trying to have more communication and touch base within the team.ย We are finding there are some tasks that drag on and extend when really - you could spend some time on them and just get it done.ย It could be failing due to being boring or needing another staff member to finish/help with a task.ย It would really benefit us as sometimes you have a lot in the pipeline and this will allow us to have a more clear head when looking at the work that is ahead of us.ย Ensure we help each other out and communicate more to get the wrike tasks written up correctly and finished on time.ย ย
The marketing team first implemented Wrike in 2022 for our projects. At first, we were only receiving projects and information via email; items were getting missed, and it was hard to manage. Once we got our feet underneath us, we were able to let the entire company know about Wrike, its benefits, and why we chose to use it. We had to set a hard rule that no projects or requests would be taken on unless they came through our Marketing Request Form in Wrike. We do this to make sure we have all the necessary details for a project and to set expectations on timing. It has taken a few years, but now we get a strong majority of requests in through the form and not through email. This has been a game changer, and it's so much easier to manage.
Ours has seen more growth from one department.ย We built out the spaces and steps and identified areas where it would be important to move into.ย We then took the time to go to other departments that we collaborated with to see how changes would best be made.ย ย
Overall out best method would be to start with the end in mind.ย We built out the expectations based on information and expectations of the leadership and our grants.ย We then moved into a space of what information would be best served for our community.ย We also looked at touchpoints and adjusted our usage to streamline tasksย
One habit thatโs really helped our team is starting each day by checking our Wrike Dashboard instead of email. It keeps priorities clear and reduces distractions. We also use automation to send reminders if tasks stay too long in "Waiting for Feedback" โ small habits, big impact!
