Daily Log of Tasks
The purpose of the Daily Log is to facilitate organizational learning and performance management by promoting feedback, assessment, and transparency.
A Log allows others to access quick links to review work - which is highly relevant when working on a distributed team where many people provide feedback.
When people log their work - this work can be evaluated and assessed for efficiency, direction, and prioritization. Without a task log, it is not possible to evaluate and learn about what a person is doing.
Further, OSE is an organization that incubates other OSE Incubators. For organizational learning across these Incubators and other OSE Chapters, it is important to document what people are doing to clarify expectations.
For a log to be effective it should:
- Discuss tasks done
- Have comments on important learnings
- Provide links to all work product
- State the time it tool on any task that took more than 15 minutes
