What does it mean to be connected in a time when teams and tools are more distributed than ever? According to research[1], today’s enterprise workers switch between an average of 10 apps 25 times per day to execute work, resulting in unconnected communication, reduced efficiency, and duplicative work. In other words, instead of effectively moving work forward, many are stuck context switching and moving work back and forth between tools in a struggle to collaborate effectively.

Many companies and organizations, including Asana, have missions to guide their work.

How much clarity do you have into your team’s workload? If you answered “not a lot,” you’re not alone. In fact, 1 in 4 businesses say they either have no process in place or rely on “gut feel” to distribute work. As a result, a whopping 80% of employees report feeling overworked and close to burning out.

You know the feeling: you’re getting started on an exciting new project, but now that you’re actually sitting down to finalize the project plan, you have some tough decisions ahead of you. Deciding how you’ll visually track and manage your work is critical to setting your team up for success. These early project decisions are key to starting your project on the right track, and will make it easier for your team to track and execute work all the way through the finish line.

As a team lead, sharing regular status updates and progress reports with project stakeholders and executives is all in a day’s work. That’s because reporting is an essential part of communicating impact, getting ahead of potential pitfalls, and highlighting wins. The problem is, too many team leads spend too much of their time gathering the facts and figures needed to show where work stands.

At Asana, we’re big fans of reducing work about work—that pesky 60% of our workday that we spend on rote or duplicative tasks. Think of every time you’ve searched a document for a specific data point, spent precious time chasing for the right stakeholder or approver, or sat through a status meeting that could have been a written report. For team leads, reporting on work and sharing progress metrics is just another facet of work about work.

With Goals in Asana, teams now have a way to connect big-picture company goals to the daily work that supports those goals. But to help your team successfully implement Goals, you need a powerful and established change-management strategy to set your team up for success. Simply put, you need the Asana Way of Change. The Asana Way of Change implements change management best practices to help your team develop a roadmap to lasting change.

If you had to guess, how much time do you think you spend on manual work? Looking back, it doesn’t alway feel like a lot, because “manual work” can take so many different forms: setting up documents, routing work, creating reports—the list goes on. But manual work is a huge contributor to work about work, the busywork that takes up 60% of every workday.
