What is Prioritization?
Choosing what gets attention now and what must wait or stop.
What you learn
A priority is real only when something else stops.
When it helps
you need to choose which tasks or projects come first within a fixed amount of time.
Use it at work
- List everything the team has committed to.
- Add up the time each needs, and compare it with the time you have.
- Pick the top priority.
- Decide what stops or waits to make room, and tell the people affected.
Your output
For your top priority, write down what you’ll stop or delay to make room, and tell the people affected.
Watch for
Adding a priority without removing anything.
