Make the Case: Eliminating Inefficiencies

Consider the tasks or processes your team takes part in each month. Perhaps it is reporting KPIs. Maybe it’s submitting budget expenses, or running a report for another team or professional. Now consider the usage. What gets done with the KPI numbers? Are they getting reported and collecting cobwebs? Fix that! Are budget expenses being tracked by your team AND accounting? Cut that inefficiency. Running reports each month? Who reads them? Are they reading them? What purpose is that information serving? If it’s not actually serving a good purpose, strike it. We are too busy to be repeating tasks and processes, no matter how small, that serve no greater purpose.

If you have trouble making the case for stopping some of these things, consider keeping your time for 30 days. Track how long each of these things takes you to do. In the grand scheme, is it worth it?
