organizing the Microsoft planner board,

00:00:07

making statuses visually understandable,

00:00:10

and maintaining consistency with Microsoft List.

00:00:13

The objective is to transform decisions into smooth and measurable work,

00:00:18

set clear rules.

00:00:20

One task corresponds to a concrete result.

00:00:23

One person owns it,

00:00:24

and a realistic date is set.

00:00:27

The status remains simple and verifiable with not started

00:00:31

in progress,

00:00:33

or completed as common language

00:00:35

in case of a blockage reported immediately

00:00:38

in the comments section for shared visibility.

00:00:42

Create compartments that reflect the milestones or workflow,

00:00:45

then distribute the tasks according to the structure.

00:00:48

Each task has an actionable title,

00:00:51

a concise description,

00:00:53

and if necessary,

00:00:54

a checklist limited to critical steps.

00:00:57

Attach the documents from the channel's SharePoint location

00:01:01

and insert the link to the list record to preserve the business context,

00:01:06

labels mark risks,

00:01:07

external dependencies,

00:01:09

or criticalities to quickly identify priorities.

00:01:14

Alternate the groupings as needed

00:01:16

by compartment to track progress towards milestones

00:01:19

by person during daily meetings

00:01:22

to visualize distribution and blockages

00:01:25

by deadline at the end of the day

00:01:27

to check the feasibility for the next day.

00:01:30

These dynamic views reduce the time spent searching for information

00:01:34

and increase the time dedicated to progress.

00:01:39

Teams is used to frame,

00:01:41

decide,

00:01:42

and announce

00:01:43

while planner handles execution.

00:01:46

List remains the business reference.

00:01:49

Reflects significant changes in execution in the corresponding records

00:01:54

or automate a minimal update

00:01:56

when moving to the completed status.

00:01:59

This synchronization maintains consistency between data,

00:02:04

conversation,

00:02:04

and execution.
