That gets spun off as soon as it's on your plate.
So everything by default goes to a team plate.
No one's working on it.
Then we keep track of from that plate, as we move things to people's individual responsibilities, we have like, I don't, you should do three things at a time.
That's it.
And when you finish something, you can pull something else in.
So do a small number of things fast and well, and then keep bringing things.
So I would definitely do that.
The second thing I would do is I would say no more hyperactive hive mind.
If you send a message that requires more than a single message in response, that should not happen over digital communication.
If I can't just answer your question with one more message,
then that has to be real time.
Now, we can't have that turn into an explosion of meetings.
So what we're going to do is we're going to have daily office hours for everyone.
So there'll be a daily time where everyone knows they can call you or walk to your office or whatever and go through a bunch of things with you real quick instead of sending emails.
We're going to have morning stand-up meetings within the teams for sure.
Who's working on what this morning?
Who needs what from who to get that done?
Go do the work.
We're going to have, so we'll definitely do those as well.
