Steve, thank you for sharing your working menu. Your example will help me tremendously as I develop a standard work format for myself and my leaders. I also appreciate your thoughts about how you use this tool to coach and develop your team. Great work!

Steve, thank you for sharing your working menu. It’s exactly what I was looking for to help develop a structured day to day task activity schedule for our supervisors.

Tom, your comments are right on the mark. It’s simple and the reason my team use it is that as their leader I place value on it so it stays high on their heirachy (Whats interesting to my boss is fascinating to me). Same goes for my leader.

Why is it in excel? I print it out and it lives on my office door as part of visual factory, anyone walking past has access to see what are my key tasks. When starting my role I had to “train” a few people but I find the number of clashes with my key tasks has dwindled to next to none.

Thanks for sharing. As expected it is very simple, and should be useful if your team and other stakeholders USE it every day.
Just one question: why did you use Excel and not a normal intranet or internet calendar (google calendar or similar) which can be shared and would make changes, etc. easier?

Let me be the first to reply to my own article by saying THANK YOU to Steve for his generosity. I’m sure he’d appreciate additional thank you messages… so please take the time and give Steve a little shout out by leaving a comment.
