Today's highlights: Eric Mack on Delegated Action Management; HyperOffice Intranet Suite for the Mac; Groove and CH2M HILL;
- Eric Mack posted a podcast on delegated action management. It's an 11 minute audio briefing. Key take-away: you have to ensure that the *technology of productivity* aligns with the team's accepted *methodology of productivity*. Four points if you are going to use delegated actions: (1) discuss delegated actions with collaboration partners; (2) ensure you understand how delegated tasks work (eg, who owns it? can a delegated task be delegated to someone else?); (3) ensure that everyone understands how you will be using delegated tasks; and (4) have everyone practice delegating, accepting and declining actions.
