Key Quotes:
- “If you’re not attaching those emails to the activity it belongs to, now you have a big attachment list that you have to go wading through to find all the emails that go with that one change. Instead of dragging and dropping that e-mail, start with Epic.” – Sue Good
- “There are good uses for tasks, but it needs to be really clearly defined on who’s responsible for what. Can I close my activity if you haven’t done your job? And should I be closing my activity if you haven’t done your job? Because, maybe I shouldn’t be.” – Sue Good
- “Workflows change, okay? Workflows are living breathing documents. Nothing is decided by one person. It’s decided by the committee. There should be a workflow team in every agency, including a manager or an owner who has a vested interest in the outcome.” – Sue Good
