Mastering Work Intake sponsors SPaMCAST!

Starting Everything Means Finishing Nothing

One big thing: Poor work entry means delivering less. 

Why it matters: Work Intake controls what a team works on and when they work on it.

  • Overloaded teams deliver less value.

  • Poor prioritization leads to delivering the wrong work.

  • Chaotic work intake costs organizations money and time.

Zoom in: Mastering Work Intake by Jeremy Willets and Tom Cagley provides the reader with ideas, principles, actionable advice, worksheets, and examples to deliver more value.
