In its twelfth edition, the quarterly journal [Architecture Hospitalière](https://www.architecture-hospitaliere.ch/) devotes an [article](https://www.architecture-hospitaliere.ch/1718/wedo-collaborer-en-toute-simplicite/) to WEDO and collects testimonials from the two co-founders of the startup as well as from one of its most active users, Joël Michelot, Logistics Director at EHC.

Under Expert insight, WEDO is presented in detail as clarified by co-founders Antoine Sudan and David Dutch. In this article, they go back to the origin of WEDO and explain what the collaborative tool brings to companies in all sectors. As the health sector is currently one of the first markets for the application, the two co-founders describe the specificities of using WEDO in this context, using the example of L'Ensemble Hospitalier de la Côte. The institution now has some 150 users who have been collaborating with the solution for almost two years.

Discover how WEDO fits into such an important organization through the testimony of Joël Michelot who describes how the tool is now part of the daily life of his teams.

## Rights management in meetings

In order to make meeting access rights even more flexible, we have added an option that will allow you to choose the specific items to which an attendee can have access. Here are the different access rights that are available: 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_1_droits_dacces_2_1024x715_488919b57e.png)

### Manage rights for each item

When you select the purple option to manage rights specifically, you must define the attendee’s access rights for each item. 

In the following example, _Cécile Mayor,_ quality manager, has access to most of the items in read-only mode and can edit items 3 and 5\. However, she will not be able to see the _Finance_ and _Human Resources_ items.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_3_gest1_1024x575_683ccc9ce0.png)

### Manage rights according to the meeting status 

You can also set the access rights according to the status of the meeting. By default, those having editing rights (green icon) can modify the items in each step. For instance, _Christiane Pittet_ can modify the content of the meeting regardless of its status:

1. Meeting agenda in preparation
2. Meeting agenda validated
3. Meeting minutes currently written
4. Meeting minutes in review

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_4_gestion_des_droits_par_etape_1024x575_e231624190.png)

However, if you do not want _Christiane_ to be able to edit the meeting agenda once it has been validated, you can modify the access rights according to the status of the meeting. Hence, attendees will only have reader rights once the meeting agenda has been validated.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_5_gestion_des_droits_par_etape_1024x575_906a13b44a.png)

For attendees who have reader rights only, you can prevent them from seeing the meeting agenda at certain steps. This can be useful if you wish that the draft steps (1 and 4) cannot be seen by other attendees. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_6_gestion_des_droits_par_etape_1024x575_ed356b36db.png)

## Complete tasks

From now on, complete your tasks by selecting the check boxes that precede them. Please note that you can always prioritize your tasks : the option to define a priority has simply been moved to the end of the line. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_7_terminer_des_taches_1024x575_ea695332f7.png)

Rights management in meetings has been revised to allow you to choose precisely who can see and modify the items of the meeting agenda. Another new feature: the version 40 of WEDO allows you to complete your tasks with just one click.

> 4% of new employees leave after a disastrous first day, while 22% of staff turnover takes place during the first 45 days\*

There are many issues at stake when welcoming a new employee. Indeed, this last phase of the recruitment process is a crucial step that is supposed to ensure a good start in the working relationship. It involves creating a special bond between the company and the new employee by giving them confidence and integrating them into the new team. The ultimate goal is to build loyalty by passing on the culture and values of your organization. For all these reasons, it is important to take care of your onboarding process from A to Z, and to update it from time to time to ensure its effectiveness. So what are the important steps to a successful onboarding? We will look at three fundamental phases: 

* The definition of the tasks involved in the onboarding process
* Designation of the persons concerned by the process
* The planning of the different deadlines surrounding _onboarding_

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_giphy_2_b054478200.gif)

\* According to a [report proposed by LinkedIn](https://business.linkedin.com/content/dam/business/talent-solutions/regional/fr%5FFR/site/pdf/tipsheets/onboarding-in-a-box-fr-fr.pdf). Figures from the study by [Bersin by Deloitte](https://www2.deloitte.com/us/en/pages/human-capital/topics/bersin-insights-and-services-for-hr.html): _Onboarding Software Solutions 2014: On-ramp for Employee Success._

## List the tasks involved in the onboarding of your employees

To begin, you need to define all the steps that make up the onboarding procedure by listing them. This involves respecting the order in which the various tasks must be carried out. Make your to-do list according to the three moments of the onboarding process:

* What needs to be done before the employee takes up the job
* What to do on the employee's first day
* What needs to be done after the employee has taken up his job

The idea is to create a template with a predefined to-do list so that it can be applied to each new employee's onboarding. This method will save you precious time and the procedure will be carried out in a systematic way. If your onboarding differs from department to department, you can create a template for each sector. Below is a template of predefined tasks for you to download. This is a non-exhaustive list and is a good basis for anyone who wants to implement an onboarding process in their organisation. 

::button-primary[Download the onboarding checklist template]{link="https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/wedo_modele_de_checklists_accueil_collaborateur_773115f78b.xlsx"}

However, you may have a good predefined task model and fail to achieve effective integration. With standard IT tools, you will write a list of tasks in _Excel_ format. This will then have to be passed on to all the employees concerned so that they carry out the tasks for which they are responsible. It is obvious that this practice can only be partially effective because it does not provide an overview for all participants. To manage your recurring procedures, opt for a collaborative tool!

With WEDO, you can track the progress of your checklists in real time: save templates and then launch checklists from them. This way, everyone involved in the process will be able to access a global view and see the progress of the checklists in progress in order to collaborate on their completion. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_1_modele_de_checklists_4069c1364e.png)

## Define the persons responsible for the onboarding procedure

The onboarding process of a new employee necessarily involves several people in the company: members of the management, executives, employees in a specific sector, HR, IT managers, secretaries or receptionists. All these people affiliated to different departments will have to work together to ensure the success of the onboarding process. Many people in charge as well as many tasks to be carried out: the onboarding process is getting more complicated! It is therefore difficult to ensure effective follow-up. 

With WEDO, you can define the different people responsible for the tasks directly in the template. Thus, each time you launch a checklist, users will receive the tasks that concern them directly in their personal space. Employees are automatically operational because they are informed of what they have to do and when. In addition, they will be able to follow the progress of each checklist and get an overview of their evolution in real time. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_2_resp1_1024x575_994aa405b7.png)

## Scheduling tasks 

Carrying out an onboarding process may require a relative planning of your tasks. What is relative planning? According to a reference date, to be defined each time a checklist is launched, tasks will have to be carried out:

* Before the reference date (D-30)
* On the reference date (in this case the date on which the employee took up the job)
* After the reference date (D+90)

### Before the employee takes up his job

Notifying all employees, signing the employment contract and specifications, creating computer access, preparing the workplace and equipment are all tasks that need to be done before the arrival of your new employee.

With the usual IT tools, it seems very complicated to automate this process. With WEDO, you have the possibility to set up a relative planning of tasks. For example, you can define that the task of _signing the employment contract_ must be completed 30 days before the arrival of the new employee. When the checklist is launched, the person in charge of this task will receive it directly with the correct scheduled date in his personal space.

### The day the employee is welcomed

Schedule some of the tasks in the model on the reference date. These are the tasks that will be to be completed on the day of the employee's arrival. After this first day, the employees in charge of the reception will be able to make a first assessment of the situation. 

### After the employee has taken up his job

The integration period generally lasts a few months. Do not lose sight of the tasks to be carried out over the long term. A good integration requires quality follow-up. Schedule tasks in your model that will remind you, for example, to make an appointment for an evaluation at the end of the trial period.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_3_sect1_1024x575_13a0334087.png)

## Launch a checklist from your model

Next month, you will welcome _Pierre Dupont_, the new technical manager of your organization. You wish to prepare his integration by launching a checklist based on the _Employee onboarding_ model previously created. The checklist will contain the employee's name and the reference date will correspond to the date he took up his position. All the generated tasks will be scheduled according to this date. After launching the checklist, the people who collaborate around this procedure will receive the tasks for which they are responsible. They will thus be able to prepare for _Pierre_'s smooth integration!

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_4_lanc1_1024x575_6b76ff3258.png)

In the digital age, there are tools that make it possible to centralize information in a single place accessible to all. WEDO allows you to easily collaborate around recurring procedures that concern several employees from different departments. If you want to know where you stand in the onboarding process for your employees, just click on _Employee onboarding_ to see that you have five checklists in progress. In each checklist, you can see in real time, which tasks have been completed and who is taking care of the tasks in progress and by when.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_11_6_vue_globale_checklists_en_cours_1_1024x575_d5522ad7bc.png)

 Here is an overview of the current checklists for the onboarding of new employees 

If your organization works with WEDO and you would like to set up an _Employee onboarding_ checklist template, you can do so in a few steps:

1. Download the [Employee onboarding checklist template](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/wedo_modele_de_checklists_accueil_collaborateur_773115f78b.xlsx)
2. Adapt it according to your internal procedure
3. See the article in our Help Center to create [a checklist template in WEDO](https://help.wedo.swiss/fr/articles/2614161-creer-un-modele-de-checklists)

## Revision of the Files tab

The Files tab, present in each workspace, works now like a folder. What are the major changes compared to the previous version? No more need to add the same file several times! Files added to the workspace can now be taken back in the future to be attached to a task or agenda item without having to go back to your computer folders. Want to rename, replace or delete a file? All this is now possible at From the Files tab!

In the tab, the files are categorized according to the element to which they are linked :

* Files in the space - those added to the Files tab
* Files attached to tasks in the workspace
* Files attached to meetings in the workspace

### Adding a file to a workspace

You can now directly add a file to a workspace. To do so, go to the Files tab and click on the **Add File button**.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_1_ajouter_un_fichier_dans_un_espace_de_travail_8be8c9bcec.png)

A window opens and offers two options for adding: drag and drop the file or choose it from the button provided for this purpose. 

**New**: you can add several files at the same time.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_2_ajouter_un_fichier_dans_un_espace_de_travail_2_fd12f3ab24.png)

### Files from workspace

Files added to the workspace are now displayed in this category. These are files that are relevant to workspace members without necessarily being linked to a task or meeting. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_3_les_fichiers_de_lespace_ae8873b9f7.png)

### Modification of basic operation

In this new version, files attached to tasks or meetings are no longer added to the default workspace. However, they can be added to the default workspace with a single click. To do so, click **Add to...** via the file information pane.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_4_ajouter_a_lespace_de_travail_a14e0721fe.png)

### Files attached to tasks

By clicking on the funnel button, you first find the **Attached to tasks** filter.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_5_filtre_joints_aux_taches_bc07d34956.png)

Here are only the files attached to the space tasks. When you click on the file, the information pane opens: a link provides direct access to the task to which the file is attached.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_6_volet_informations_lien_vers_la_tache_7d921bfb6c.png)

### Files attached to Meeting

By clicking on the funnel button, you will then find the **Attached to meetings** filter.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_7_filtre_joints_aux_reunions_bf523484c0.png)

Here are only the files attached to the workspace meetings. When you click on the file, the information pane opens, with a link to the meeting containing the file. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_8_volet_informations_lien_vers_la_reunion_f832f4c896.png)

### All files in the workspace

By clicking on the funnel button, you finally find the **All** filter.

This category includes all files in the workspace:

* Files added to the workspace
* Files attached to tasks in the workspace
* Files attached to meetings in the workspace

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_9_filtre_tous_les_fichiers_de_lespace_4e2d0955a8.png)

### Information section

When you click on a file in the tab, an information pane opens on the right side of the screen. It shows the file name, format, location, date and time of addition, file size, user who added it, and links to the items to which the file is linked. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_10_volet_dinformations_fichier_b6bd2b78cd.png)

### Version management 

WEDO now handles conflicts between different versions of the same file. When a file of the same format and name is added to the workspace, WEDO informs you and gives you two options for handling the conflict:

* Replace the existing file with the newly added version
* Keeping both versions of the file in the workspace

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_11_gestion_des_conflits_entre_fichiers_451bf3618c.png)

**Info** : if you wish to keep both versions, a suffix with the version number will automatically complete the name of the added file (ex :\_2 ; \_3 ;\_4 ; etc.).

For each file, you can consult the version history by clicking on the relevant tab. Note that it is possible to download, restore or delete a version.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_12_onglet_versions_fichier_9f2d59107d.png)

### Search through files

A search tool has been integrated into the tab to save you time. The search is only done through the selected filter. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_13_rechercher_un_fichier_dans_longlet_af5ca9ebff.png)

Each user can also search through the files of all the workspaces of which he or she is a member. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_14_rechercher_un_fichier_a_travers_tous_les_espaces_6f59b7d902.png)

## Adding files to tasks and meetings

Whether for tasks or meetings, you can now add multiple files at once. At the addition level, two options are offered to you. 

### Attach a file from disk

First case: the file has never been added to the platform. You therefore want to access the folders on your computer in order to select it. Then click on the option **From disk** and choose the files.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_15_joindre_un_fichier_depuis_le_disque_7ff765ed8b.png)

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_16_joindre_un_fichier_depuis_le_disque_2_abc56b5423.png)

### Attach a file from WEDO

Second case: the file to be attached is a file linked to a workspace of which you are a member. Click on the **From WEDO** option. A window that shows the tree structure of your network opens and allows you to access the right workspace.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_17_joindre_un_fichier_depuis_wedo_f6958ea713.png)

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_18_joindre_un_fichier_depuis_wedo_2_52a75bbd75.png)

## Quick overview of PDF files and images

The **Open** option gives access to a preview of the contents of PDF files and images.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_07_19_ouvrir_apercu_pdf_6cc6367c30.png)

You can browse the document using the navigation.

File management

To prepare and conduct your meetings, WEDO guides you in 5 steps: 

* **Before the meeting – Steps 1 and 2** : preparation of the agenda as a team. The writer or facilitator adds the meeting, establishes the list of items to be discussed and then invites participants to complete the agenda.
* **During the meeting - Step 3 :** the writer writes the minutes in real time. All participants can attend live note-taking.
* **Post-meeting - Steps 4 and 5 :** the writer and participants review, edit and validate the meeting minutes.

Through this article, discover some tips to conduct your meetings with WEDO taking into account the 5 proposed steps. You will see that at each step, it is possible to keep the participants informed and make them aware of their role in the preparation and follow-up of the meeting. To give substance to our explanations, we propose a concrete case study:

### The preparation and follow-up of an Executive Committee by Agathe Rost[^1], Executive Assistant 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_1_agathe_rost_assistante_de_direction_1_28994aba97.png)

## Step 1: Meeting agenda in preparation

Agathe Rost, Executive Assistant, decided to prepare the agenda for the next committee meeting in a week's time. The director of the organization, Bernard Macherel\*, sent her by email the list of topics to be discussed. Agathe goes to the workspace dedicated to the Executive Committee and adds a meeting. After entering the title, date, time, duration and location of the meeting, she focuses on the list of participants. The members of the Executive Committee workspace have been added automatically to save her precious time.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_2_etape_1_liste_des_participants_1_c9f6a790ca.png)

Agathe now wishes to manage the different access rights of the participants. For this meeting, Mathilde and Bernard have all the same rights as Agathe. The other participants will only be able to modify the agenda items in steps 1 and 3\. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_3_etape_1_fenetre_gestion_des_droits_dacces_1_ef9ce2fac2.png)

Next, Agathe wishes to add the items to the agenda. With a few clicks, she copies the list of topics previously listed by her director and pastes it into the input bar. The items are created automatically and now appear in the table of contents on the left side of the screen. Agathe can now schedule them as she pleases.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_4_ordre_du_jour_en_preparation_1_a8a936bb7b.png)

The outline of the meeting is ready. Agathe would like to inform participants to add their notes to the agenda items. To do so, she sends an email to participants directly from the platform by clicking on the **button with the envelope**.

The participants are listed as recipients. Agathe takes advantage of the predefined subject and message to save time and clicks directly on **Send by email**.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_5_etape_1_fenetre_envoi_email_1_f43b0491ca.png)

## Step 2: Meeting agenda validated

On the eve of the meeting, the agenda has been completed by all participants and is normally no longer subject to change. After a brief rereading, Agathe can validate the agenda and proceed to step 2 by clicking on **Meeting agenda is ready** in the red banner at the bottom of the screen.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_6_lordre_du_jour_est_pret_1_bf5d544104.png)

Agathe finally has to add a last minute information in one of the agenda items. From the orange banner at the bottom of the screen, she **edits the meeting agenda**.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_7_etape_2_editer_lordre_du_jour_1_fadc608e95.png)

## Step 3: Meeting minutes currently written

On D-Day, Agathe returns to the previously prepared meeting. The meeting is in step 2 - Meeting agenda validated. At the bottom left of the screen, she clicks on **Start Meeting**.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_8_commencer_la_reunion_019e71f2e5.png)

Agathe begins by completing the information about the participants. She checks off the absent and excused persons. She also adds the reason for the apology in the field provided. 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_9_etape_3_controle_des_presences_58eb3b17f3.png)

The meeting begins: Agathe is ready to write up the minutes of the discussions. As she writes it, she navigates easily from point to point using the table of contents and adds notes, decisions and tasks to the various points discussed. At the end of the meeting, Agathe clicks on the **End Meeting** button in the yellow banner at the bottom of the screen.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_10_clore_la_reunion_fe0d06e165.png)

## Step 4: Meeting minutes in review

A few hours after the meeting, Agathe would like to review the minutes. She returns to the Executive Committee workspace, resumes the meeting in Step 4 - Meeting minutes in review. To make corrections, she clicks **Edit Minutes** in the purple banner at the bottom of the screen. Once the changes have been made, she clicks **Finish**.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_11_etape_4_editer_le_compte_rendu_6c73d6a8e7.png)

## Step 5: Meeting minutes locked

A few days after the meeting and after a final reading, Agathe can finally move on to the last step. In order to follow up from one meeting to the next, she decides to lock the minutes. The minutes can no longer be modified. 

To do this, she clicks the **Lock meeting minutes** button in the purple banner at the bottom of the screen and follows the procedure required for locking.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_06_12_verrouiller_le_compte_rendu_c71e61095f.png)

Finally, Agathe sends an email to participants to inform them that the minutes have been locked. They are invited to read it again in order to ensure a follow-up from one meeting to the next.

WEDO boosts the efficiency of meetings


Meetings are an essential part of any organization’s workflow, and making them efficient can be challenging. With [WEDO](https://wedo.com/)’s new update, sending your meeting agenda and meeting minutes by email has become easier than ever. 

Now, meeting participants can access key information at the right time, ensuring everyone is prepared, tasks are assigned, and nothing falls through the cracks. These updates are designed to help you focus on important points and improve communication with your team members before, during, and after the meeting.

In this update, we’ll dive into the improved features, such as email templates, new meeting recaps, and a smoother agenda-sharing experience. Whether it’s a board meeting, a routine check-in, or an important project review, WEDO’s new features will help you streamline the process and ensure effective meetings.

### Why emailing your agenda and meeting minutes matters
Sending out the agenda items and meeting notes ahead of time can significantly enhance meeting effectiveness. Participants have the opportunity to review the agenda before the meeting and be well-prepared, ensuring that discussions are concise and to the point. This not only saves time but also ensures that all key topics and decisions made during the meeting are covered efficiently.

Moreover, sharing the meeting minutes post-meeting allows for accurate meeting recaps and a clear record of what happened. All tasks assigned are documented, and the decisions and action items are highlighted, ensuring there is no ambiguity about the next steps.

### New features: A step-by-step guide to sending agendas and meeting minutes by email

In this latest update, WEDO has made it incredibly simple to share both meeting agendas and meeting minutes via email. Here’s how it works:

#### Step 1: Prepare and send the meeting agenda 
After setting up the meeting, you can send the agenda to participants with just a few clicks. The agenda items will include all relevant details, such as meeting date, time, and objectives.

To send the agenda by email, follow these steps:

- Click on the **envelope icon** (1) at the top-right corner of the screen to access the email templates. This is available at each step of the meeting in the top right of the screen.


![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide1_2_81b9c299d3.png)

- A window will pop up where you can add or remove recipients. The default recipients are the selected attendees of the meeting. You can always **delete** (2) or **add other participants** (3) as necessary.

- Once the subject and message are completed, click **Send by email** (4). Recipients will get an email inviting them to access the meeting directly within WEDO.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide2_bebfc8763e.png)

By using this feature, attendees are invited to review the agenda items and add their notes or questions in advance. This encourages active participation and ensures that all team members are aligned and well-prepared before the meeting begins.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide3_2_6369d11577.png)

#### Step 2: Validating and sending the final agenda
After finalizing the agenda, it’s time to send it out to participants again, this time as the confirmed document. Here’s where this step makes a difference: it acts as a reminder to prepare for the meeting.
Once the agenda is validated, all meeting participants are prompted via email to read it carefully and prepare for the meeting. They can add their comments and insights directly within the platform, ensuring everyone has input before discussions begin.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide4_2_7cc229dc9a.png)

#### Step 3: Send meeting minutes in real-time 

The third step in this update is WEDO’s real-time meeting minutes feature. As the meeting progresses, participants can view and follow the key points covered and any decisions made in real-time. This eliminates the need to wait until the end of the meeting to review the minutes of meeting.

The meeting facilitator or secretary can keep the meeting notes updated, ensuring that nothing is missed. The feature is particularly useful for board meetings or critical discussions where decisions need to be tracked accurately.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide5_2_11e9eb917d.png)

#### Step 4: Reviewing the meeting minutes 
Once the meeting is over, the minutes enter review mode. At this stage, participants can access the minutes and provide feedback or suggest changes before they are finalized. This ensures that the key topics and decisions and action items are accurately reflected.

WEDO sends an automatic email reminder, inviting attendees to review and comment on the minutes. This step is particularly beneficial for ensuring that no details are overlooked, and that everyone has a chance to provide their input before the minutes are locked.


![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide6_2_93272c7927.png)

#### Step 5: Finalized meeting minutes 
After the review period, the meeting minutes are finalized and locked. WEDO sends another email to notify participants that the final minutes of the meeting are available for review. This ensures that there’s a clear record of the meeting, and everyone can follow up on their tasks assigned.

Participants can refer back to the meeting recaps and key points covered, making it easier to track progress from one meeting to the next. This step solidifies the decisions made during the meeting and ensures accountability.


![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide7_2_402fb5d148.png)

### Copying items from one meeting to another: Streamline your workflow
Another valuable feature in this update is the ability to copy agenda items or sub-items from one meeting to another. This feature saves time and helps connect the dots between related meetings, particularly when you're dealing with recurring board meetings or ongoing projects. Please note that the entire content of the item is copied, i.e. the notes, decisions, tasks and attached files.

To use this feature:
- Select the item you wish to copy and click on the **three vertical dots** (1).
- Choose **Copy to…** (2) from the dropdown menu.


![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide8_92aa996031.png)

- In the pop-up window, define which meeting the item should be copied to. You can also choose the workspace, and the location of the item within the meeting agenda (3).

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide9_945d57297a.png)

- Then click **Copy**(2).

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_05_slide10_9110ca02d1.png)

With this new tool, you can easily carry over decisions made or important points from one meeting to another, ensuring continuity in discussions and avoiding redundant rework.

### Practical benefits of the WEDO update
These [new features](https://wedo.com/features/meetings) in WEDO aren’t just about functionality—they’re designed to enhance your overall meeting experience and boost productivity. Here’s how:

- **Better preparation:** By sending the agenda in advance, participants have time to prepare for discussions and add their notes. This improves the effectiveness of the meeting and ensures that everyone is on the same page.
- **Efficient use of time:** Real-time meeting minutes help participants follow along, ensuring that all key topics are covered during the meeting. This makes discussions more concise and to the point, preventing unnecessary delays.
- **Clear follow-up:** With easy-to-access, locked meeting minutes, all tasks assigned and decisions made during the meeting are available for review. This ensures that the team follows through on commitments, leading to more effective meetings in the future.

## Conclusion
WEDO’s new features simplify the way you handle meetings, from sending agenda items to distributing meeting recaps and finalizing minutes of meetings. With email templates, real-time meeting notes, and the ability to copy items across meetings, you can ensure that every meeting runs smoothly.

By incorporating these tools into your meeting process, you’ll streamline communication, reduce misunderstandings, and improve overall meeting productivity. Make the most of your meetings with WEDO's latest features.

## Manage corporate meetings using digital solutions 

On March 27th, the _HR Today_ newspaper, the Swiss media of reference in the field of human resources management, devoted an article to the very topical theme of the meeting madness. The "illness" of meeting, ironically characterized by this neologism, is an ailment from which many companies suffer. Nowadays, there are fortunately technological remedies to solve this real scourge which can cost a lot of time, energy and money.

Presenting WEDO as the Swiss software designed to facilitate the preparation, conduct and follow-up of corporate meetings, the editor gives a detailed portrait of our tool and highlights the solutions proposed to optimize the management of meetings. In this article, discover the testimonials of Antoine Sudan and David Dutch, co-founders of WEDO.

## What is a team?

A team represents a department or a service of your organization. You can move workspaces and checklists templates from your network to previously created teams.

This new manner of grouping collaborators aims to improve the structure of your network. Furthermore, it simplifies the integration of new users: once their account is created, you can simply add them to the appropriate team. They will have direct access to workspaces and checklists templates that concern them.

Here is a preview of what a team-structured network looks like:

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_diapositive1_6402e25b7c.png)

## Main menu revised

The introduction of teams brings changes to the general ergonomics of the main menu on left side of the screen. A TEAMS section now appears in the menu and allows you to visualize the workspaces and checklists templates of the teams of which you are a member.

The idea is to replace the categorization of workspaces into different folders – which will eventually disappear in a future version.

We came up with a solution that will allow you to gradually adopt this new organization in teams. Hence, you will find in the side menu the following elements:

* The WORKSPACES
* The CHECKLISTS TEMPLATES
* The TEAMS – the newest category

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide1_1_3667ce2950.png)

In the long term, the ideal would be to have only the TEAMS section that groups and categorizes the workspaces and checklists templates.

Team-related workspaces and checklists templates are grouped into two tabs – you will find an example in the screenshot below, with the _Management_ team_._ 

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide2_1fd493db75.png)

## How to adopt an organization in teams?

All users are allowed to create teams. We suggest you proceed in steps:

1. [Create a team](https://help.wedo.swiss/les-equipes/creer-une-equipe)
2. [Move a workspace to a team](https://help.wedo.swiss/les-equipes/deplacer-un-espace-de-travail-dans-un-equipe)
3. [Move a checklist template to a team](https://help.wedo.swiss/les-equipes/deplacer-un-modele-de-checklists-dans-un-equipe)

**Information:** Even though all users are allowed to create teams, only the moderators of workspaces and checklists templates have the right to move these elements to the different teams of the network.

## Confidentiality concerning workspaces

When you link a workspace to a team, you can choose between two options that will determine the confidentiality of the space in question:

* **Public:** all members of the team will automatically have access to it.
* **Private:** only members of the workspace will have access.

### Join a public space 

A public space can be joined by all members of the team.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide3_1_e3dd9238db.png)

### Private space

A private space is only visible to its members.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide4_c3eb9e221b.png)

For more information, please consult the following article in the Help Center:[ Create a workspace.](https://help.wedo.swiss/les-espaces-de-travail/creer-un-espace-de-travail)

### Checklists templates

Confidentiality also applies to checklists templates linked to a team. Hence, you have the option to create public or private templates.

For more information, please consult the following article in the Help Center: [Create](https://help.wedo.swiss/les-modeles-de-checklists/creer-un-modele-de-checklists) a checklist template.

## Review of access rights management in meetings

Other improvements in this new version: the distinction between meeting attendees and users who can access it.

The **Access** and **Signature** columns no longer appear in the list of meeting attendees. A button now allows you to access directly to the management of meeting access rights.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide5_94ca650f18.png)

From this overview, it is possible to manage the rights of each attendee according to the usual procedure. This is also where the signature option should be checked if necessary

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide6_c72517f846.png)

This access list also allows you to add other users and give them meeting access rights, even though they are not among the attendees.

![](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/2019_04_slide7_5ccebd1996.png)

## Other functionalities to discover in this version:

* Search through decisions made in meetings
* Sorting tasks according to scheduled dates
* Improved performance in the display of task lists
* A drop-down list to move from an organization to another when you are a member of several networks
* Display of the management of members in workspaces and checklists templates
* The design of maps representing workspaces and checklists templates

Every day, we juggle a series of tasks, from answering emails and attending meetings all the way to cooking dinner or finally folding that pile of laundry staring us down for days. Task management is everywhere around us, whether we realize it or not. 

But here's the catch: managing tasks is more than checking boxes. It's making sure the right boxes are checked at the right time, by the right people.

For individuals, good task management can mean less stress and more time to spend on what matters most to them. For teams and organizations, it's the difference between controlled chaos and seamless collaboration. When done well, task management becomes a superpower, moving businesses toward growth and ensuring projects are delivered on time (and with fewer sleepless nights).

In this guide, we're going to explore strategies, tools, and best practices that turn task management into a fine-tuned system. Whether you're wrangling your own to-do list or leading a team toward big goals, this can be your roadmap to staying on top of your game. 

Let's get started!


The Ultimate Guide to Task Management: Strategies, Tools, and Best Practices

Sometimes, you don’t need more tools to manage your work. You just need a better way to see it.

That’s the problem the Kanban board was designed to solve. It gives teams a clear view of what needs to be done, what’s in progress, and what’s already finished, without juggling endless checklists or buried updates.
Originally developed in manufacturing, the Kanban method is now one of the simplest and most effective ways to manage projects across software, marketing, operations, and more.

In this guide, we’ll explain what a Kanban board is, how it compares to Scrum, where it works best, and how to make it part of your workflow using the right tools.

## What Is a Kanban Board?
Let’s start from the beginning. A Kanban board is a visual way to organize work, track progress, and see what’s getting done, without digging through spreadsheets or inboxes.

At its core, it’s simple. You have columns that represent different stages of work, like “To Do,” “In Progress,” and “Done.” Tasks live on cards that move across the board as the work moves forward.

Most Kanban board apps follow this format, with features like due dates, checklists, tags, and assignees layered on top to help teams stay organized.

The idea comes from the original Kanban method, developed by Toyota to manage workflows on factory floors. Over time, it’s evolved into one of the most widely used techniques in modern project management, especially for teams that need flexibility and real-time visibility.

Whether you're managing a solo project or working with a full development team, the board’s purpose stays the same: make the work visible, limit what’s being worked on at once, and keep everything moving in the right direction.

And the best part? You don’t need a complicated setup to get started. A few columns, a few cards, and you’re already using a system that scales as your workflow grows.

## Kanban vs Scrum: What’s the Difference?
Kanban and Scrum are both popular frameworks within agile methodology, but they take different approaches to organizing work. If you’ve used task boards before, chances are you’ve encountered both, even if you didn’t realize it.

Let’s break it down.

![Image comparing Kanban and Scrum. Kanban is based on continuous flow, flexibility, work-in-progress (WIP) limits, and evolving priorities. Scrum relies on a structured approach with defined roles (Scrum Master, Product Owner), time-boxed sprints, and sprint planning with fixed deliverables.](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/Kanban_vs_Scrum_Whats_the_Difference_en_6aedc0dd6f.png)

Scrum works in time-based sprints. Teams commit to a fixed set of tasks every two to four weeks, with structured roles like product owner, scrum master, and development team. It’s great for teams building toward a clear, deadline-driven release. The rhythm is tight, with regular planning and review sessions baked into the cycle.

Kanban, on the other hand, is continuous. Work doesn’t wait for a sprint to start or finish. Instead, tasks move fluidly through a kanban board, giving teams more flexibility to adjust as priorities shift. It’s ideal for handling a steady stream of work, whether that’s support tasks, internal projects, or content pipelines, without needing to reset everything every few weeks.

Where Scrum locks the sprint, Kanban teams focus on keeping things flowing. They often use limits on how much can be worked on at once (called the limit work in progress) to prevent overload and reduce blockers. And instead of sprint retros, they make small, regular improvements based on what’s actually happening in the workflow.

However, the two approaches aren’t opposites; many teams combine them. You might plan in sprints and track in Kanban. [WEDO](https://wedo.com/features) supports both ways of working, but its flexible task board setup makes it especially useful for teams who want real-time visibility and the ability to adjust as things change.

If your projects evolve quickly, involve cross-functional input, or don’t follow a strict sprint cycle, Kanban project management might be a better fit and easier to manage in a tool that’s built for flexible collaboration.

## How a Kanban Board Actually Works
A [Kanban board](https://kanban.university/kanban-guide/) turns a list of tasks into something you can see and move. The structure is simple: columns represent stages of work, and cards represent individual tasks. As a task progresses, its card moves from one column to the next, usually from “To Do” to “In Progress” to “Done.”

That movement isn’t just for show. It’s a way to visualize workflows, track real progress, and keep everyone on the same page without needing a meeting to check in.

Here’s what you’ll find on most digital kanban board apps:

- **Columns:** These are customizable, so they can match your actual process. A content team might use “Draft,” “Review,” and “Published.” A software development team might use “Backlog,” “In Progress,” “QA,” and “Released.”
- **Cards:** These represent tasks, user stories, or individual items of work. They often include a title, description, assignee, due date, and status.
- **Movement:** Cards move across the board as work happens. This is how teams get real-time updates on what’s active, what’s stuck, and what’s finished.

The board view creates clarity. Team members can see what needs attention without scanning through a long task list. When used consistently, a Kanban board helps spot bottlenecks early, like when too many tasks pile up in the “In Progress” column, so teams can refocus and rebalance.

One of the key principles behind the Kanban method is to limit work in progress. That means only working on a few tasks at a time, instead of trying to tackle everything at once, which keeps quality high and context switching low.

The result? A more focused team, fewer dropped tasks, and a system that’s always up to date, and not just when someone remembers to update the status.

## Kanban Board Use Cases
The beauty of a Kanban board is how easily it adapts to different kinds of work. Whether you’re part of a software development team, managing internal operations, or running creative projects, the same simple board structure can help you keep track of tasks, reduce friction, and deliver work with more consistency.

Here are some of the most common ways teams use Kanban project management to stay organized.

### Software Development and IT
Engineering teams often rely on Kanban for ongoing, fast-moving work, like bug fixes, support tasks, and feature rollouts. Each card might represent a user story, issue, or task, moving through stages like “Backlog,” “In Progress,” “Code Review,” and “Released.”

It’s especially useful when paired with Agile practices or as a flexible alternative for teams that don’t work in strict sprints. Software development teams also use visualization tools to spot bottlenecks, limit blockers, and review throughput over time.

### Product Teams
From roadmap planning to feature delivery, Kanban helps product managers and cross-functional teams keep track of priorities without losing momentum. Cards often include specs, mockups, or links to related documentation. The product owner can quickly see what’s in progress and whether any tasks are stuck or overdue.

### Marketing and Creative
Campaigns, content pipelines, and design requests all flow better with a board. A marketing team might set up columns like “Ideas,” “In Progress,” “Client Review,” and “Published.” Each card can have assignees, a due date, checklists, and file attachments, and the team gets a clear board view of progress at a glance.

### Operations, HR, and Admin
Kanban is not just for technical or creative teams. HR might track employee onboarding steps using a Kanban board. Operations teams can manage recurring tasks like inventory restocking or compliance reviews. Any team that needs to manage projects with repeatable stages can benefit from a Kanban board template that maps their workflow.

### Agile or Hybrid Teams
For teams that follow agile methodology, Kanban can complement or even replace Scrum processes. A scrum team might use a board to visualize the sprint backlog and progress during daily standups. Hybrid approaches like Scrumban blend the flexibility of Kanban with Scrum’s structure, giving teams the best of both systems.

Whether your team is co-located or remote, Kanban helps team members stay aligned without micromanagement. It simplifies coordination, improves visibility, and works for just about any kind of project.

## Choosing the Right Kanban Tools
If you want to get the most out of a Kanban board, the tool you use matters. Some apps keep it simple, while others add more structure for teams working across multiple projects. The best setup is one that matches how your team already works.
Here are a few things to look for when comparing Kanban board apps and project management tools.

### Customizable workflows
Your tool should let you create a board that [matches how your team actually works](https://wedo.com/features/tasks). That includes the ability to rename columns, change their order, and organize tasks based on the structure that makes sense for your project.

### Shared views that keep everyone aligned
A clear board view helps team members see what’s being worked on, what’s blocked, and what’s done. Everyone should be able to access the same task list and make updates in real time, without needing separate check-ins to stay in sync.

### Built-in task details
You’ll want a board that lets you assign work, set due dates, and add context to each card. This makes it easier to follow up, especially when multiple people are involved in a task or when deadlines are important.

### Real-time visibility
Updates should show up as they happen. A board that reflects changes in real time makes it easier to manage work without extra messages or duplicated effort. It also helps teams spot delays early, before they become actual blockers.

### Ties into how your team already works
A board is most useful when it’s part of your overall workflow. That means choosing a project management tool that doesn’t just show cards on a screen, but also supports how tasks are created, assigned, and completed, ideally without needing to switch platforms.

## Using a Kanban Board in WEDO
If your team already tracks tasks in WEDO, setting up a [Kanban board](https://wedo.com/tag/kanban-2) doesn’t require a new tool or extra steps; it’s already built into the way the platform works.

Each workspace in [WEDO](https://wedo.com/features) gives you a column-style board view, where tasks are organized by section. You can structure those sections to reflect your team’s actual process, whether that’s “To Do / In Progress / Done” or something more specific like “Planning / Approval / Launch.”

As work progresses, tasks can be moved across columns with a simple drag and drop. You’ll always have a clear visual of what’s active, what’s finished, and what might be waiting on input from others.

Every task card in WEDO can be assigned to one or more team members, with a clear due date, notes, and optional status updates. You can filter views by deadline, status, or assignee, which helps surface what needs attention without scanning the full board.

What makes WEDO especially useful is how your Kanban board connects with the rest of your work. Tasks created during meetings or added to a shared project space are automatically visible to the team, which means fewer things fall through the cracks.
You don’t need to manually copy notes or build separate task lists; everything stays in one place, updated in real time, and easy to follow.

![Video demo showing how the Kanban view works in WEDO: create, move, and track tasks across columns for clear team coordination.](http://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/kanban_en_c252fba607.gif)

Whether you’re managing a full project or just want to keep your daily work more organized, WEDO gives your team a Kanban-style setup that’s simple to use and flexible enough to grow with your workflow.

## Conclusion
A Kanban board does more than organize tasks. It helps teams see their work clearly, stay focused, and make steady progress. Whether you’re working in product, operations, marketing, or development, the Kanban method gives you a system that’s easy to understand and easy to stick with.

What Is a Kanban Board? Tools, Apps, and Project Use Cases Explained

Most people approach their daily work with good intentions. They build a task list, block off time, and dive into the day ready to be productive. But somewhere between answering emails, attending meetings, and switching between projects, focus begins to fade.
Managing daily tasks without a clear strategy often results in constant context switching. Every time attention shifts from one type of task to another, the brain has to reset. This adjustment may only take a few seconds on the surface, but over the course of a workday, it drains mental energy and reduces the quality of work.

Task batching offers a way to break that cycle. By grouping similar tasks together and completing them in dedicated blocks, individuals and teams can maintain momentum, minimize wasted energy, and make better use of their most productive hours.
In this article, we will explore how task batching works, why it improves time management, and how it fits alongside techniques like time blocking. We will also look at how to categorize tasks effectively and how platforms like [WEDO](https://wedo.com/features) can support better daily workflows.

## What Is Task Batching?
Task batching is a time management technique that involves grouping similar tasks together and working on them in a single, uninterrupted session. Instead of jumping from one unrelated task to another throughout the day, you focus on a batch of related activities during a dedicated time block.

For example, answering emails, following up on client requests, and checking internal messages all require a similar type of attention. Rather than scattering these tasks across the day, batching them into a single communication-focused session allows you to complete them more efficiently and with fewer mental interruptions.

Task batching works because it reduces the number of times you need to shift gears mentally. Every time you switch between tasks that require different cognitive processes, such as moving from creative writing to financial reporting, your brain has to adapt. That adaptation uses time and energy, even if the shift feels small.

By grouping similar tasks, you minimize the impact of context switching and give your mind the space to reach a deeper level of focus. Whether managing your personal task list or coordinating work across a team, task batching helps build structure into your day and creates opportunities for more consistent, high-quality work.

At its core, task batching is about aligning the type of work you are doing with the mental energy it requires. When structured well, batching creates a natural rhythm that makes it easier to stay engaged, [prioritize tasks](https://wedo.com/blog/guide-to-managing-and-prioritizing-your-daily-tasks), and complete work more effectively.

## Why Context Switching Destroys Focus
At first glance, switching between different tasks throughout the day feels harmless. Answering an email between meetings or checking a project update between writing reports seems efficient. In reality, frequent context switching drains cognitive resources and fragments attention, making it harder to perform any task well.

When you move from one type of work to another, your brain needs time to adjust. Researchers often refer to this adjustment as "attention residue." After switching, part of your mind remains focused on the previous task, even as you try to engage with the next one. This lingering distraction slows reaction times, reduces accuracy, and lowers overall productivity.

The cost of context switching is not just about time lost during the transition. It also affects energy levels. Each mental shift requires a small but measurable cognitive effort. Over the course of a day, constant switching erodes the mental stamina needed for sustained concentration and deep work.

Deep work, focused, uninterrupted effort on cognitively demanding tasks, relies on minimizing distractions and maintaining momentum. Context switching breaks that momentum, forcing you to rebuild focus again and again.

Grouping similar tasks together limits the need to shift mental modes. Instead of constantly changing focus, you stay within the same cognitive framework for longer periods. Whether answering client emails, designing project plans, or preparing reports, working in batches allows you to complete tasks more efficiently and with greater attention to detail.

By reducing the mental load associated with frequent switching, task batching helps protect the quality of your work and conserves the energy needed to perform at a consistently high level throughout the day.

## The Benefits of Task Batching
Task batching is more than a way to feel organized. It offers real, measurable advantages for time management, energy preservation, and overall work quality. By structuring your day around grouped tasks, you set yourself up for deeper focus and more consistent results.

Here are the key benefits of task batching:

![Image showing the main benefits of task batching: saves mental energy, boosts work quality, improves time management, strengthens team coordination, and reduces stress and cognitive overload.](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/tops_benefits_of_task_batching_en_880e43eb72.png)

### More efficient use of mental energy
Grouping similar tasks together reduces the need for constant mental resets. When you stay within the same cognitive category for an extended period, your brain works more efficiently. Energy is spent completing tasks, not reorienting your focus.

### Improved time management
Task batching fits naturally into broader time management strategies, especially when combined with [time blocking](https://wedo.com/blog/how-time-blocking-helps-you-manage-your-daily-workload). Instead of reacting to each new demand, you proactively allocate blocks of time to complete entire batches of tasks. This creates a more predictable, manageable schedule and reduces the feeling of always being "busy" without making real progress.

### Better quality work
Frequent context switching increases the risk of mistakes and superficial thinking. Batching similar tasks allows you to maintain a higher level of attention on the work at hand. Whether reviewing financial data or writing proposals, staying focused leads to fewer errors and more thoughtful outcomes.

### Stronger project management and team coordination
At the team level, batching related project activities, such as planning, reviewing, or administrative updates, can streamline workflows and improve collaboration. Project managers can schedule shared task batching sessions, making it easier for team members to stay aligned and move projects forward efficiently.

### Reduced stress and cognitive overload
Task batching helps break the cycle of constant partial attention. Knowing that specific categories of work have designated times reduces the mental burden of trying to remember every outstanding item throughout the day. It also creates a clearer sense of progress, which can significantly reduce work-related stress.

Building task batching into your daily routine helps you stay organized and improves your ability to prioritize tasks, manage your energy levels, and maintain focus over longer periods.

## Task Batching vs. Time Blocking: What’s the Difference?
Task batching and [time blocking](https://wedo.com/blog/how-time-blocking-helps-you-manage-your-daily-workload) are both powerful time management techniques, but they address different aspects of how work gets done. Understanding the difference between them and how they can work together helps create a more structured and productive workday.

🖇️ **Task batching** focuses on what you work on. It involves grouping similar tasks together based on their nature, such as answering emails, updating project plans, or reviewing reports. The goal is to complete a series of related tasks without switching between different types of activities.

⏱️ **Time blocking** focuses on when you work on those tasks. It involves scheduling specific blocks of time in your calendar to complete a defined batch of work. For example, you might block two hours in the morning for deep project work and one hour in the afternoon for administrative tasks.

In practice, task batching and time blocking are often used together. After identifying and grouping tasks into logical categories, you then allocate time blocks to complete each batch. This combination improves both focus and time management by reducing context switching and ensuring that critical work has dedicated, protected time in your schedule.

**Task batching vs. time blocking in action:**
- You batch all your client follow-ups into a single group.
- You then block 10:00–11:00 AM on your calendar to complete that batch without interruptions.
- Later in the day, you batch strategic project planning and block focused time to work on it without checking messages or switching tasks.

For managing daily tasks effectively, both batching and time blocking create a more deliberate approach to work. Rather than reacting to each incoming request, you structure your day around focused effort, giving the most important tasks the time and attention they require.

When planning your workflow, it helps to think of batching as organizing your task list by type, and time blocking as organizing your calendar to protect time for focused execution.

## How to Start Task Batching Effectively
Task batching works best when it is part of a deliberate, well-structured approach to organizing your work. Simply grouping random tasks together is not enough. Effective batching depends on thoughtful categorization, realistic planning, and protecting focus during execution.

![Image outlining the 4 steps to start task batching: categorize tasks, group similar ones, block time on your calendar, and protect your focus.](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/how_to_start_task_batching_in_4_steps_en_903e382bad.png)

Here’s a practical way to get started:

### Step 1: Categorize Your Tasks
Start by reviewing your current task list. Identify patterns by grouping tasks based on their type, energy demands, or the tools they require.

Common categories might include:
- Communication tasks: emails, Slack updates, phone calls
- Planning tasks: project scoping, strategy sessions
- Administrative tasks: invoicing, document filing, expense reporting
- Creative tasks: writing, designing, brainstorming
- Deep work tasks: coding, financial analysis, data modeling
- Categorizing tasks helps you see where natural batches already exist in your workday. It also clarifies the types of tasks that require different levels of focus or energy.

### Step 2: Group Similar Tasks Together
Once your tasks are categorized, the next step is to physically group them.

This could mean creating separate lists for each batch or tagging tasks inside your [task management tool](https://wedo.com/blog/how-to-choose-the-right-task-management-tool-for-your-team) for easier sorting.

When grouping tasks, focus on similarity in mental effort and workflow style. For example, writing a proposal and editing a marketing draft both fall under creative work, even if they support different projects.
Avoid mixing tasks that require different modes of thinking. Grouping similar tasks together allows you to maintain cognitive momentum and complete work faster and with greater accuracy.

### Step 3: Plan Time Blocks for Each Batch
Assign dedicated time blocks in your calendar for each batch of tasks.
When scheduling, consider your natural energy levels throughout the day.

For instance:
- Plan deep work sessions, such as writing or analysis, in the morning when your focus is strongest.
- Reserve lower-energy periods, such as late afternoon, for administrative batches like filing or expense reports.
- Use the early afternoon for collaborative batches like [meetings](https://wedo.com/features/meetings) or follow-ups, where a shift in energy and pace is expected.

Time blocking ensures that batches are not simply planned but also protected. It helps prevent distractions and gives you a clear start and end point for each type of work.

### Step 4: Minimize Interruptions and Protect Your Focus
Batching only works when focus is maintained during execution.

Set up your environment to support uninterrupted work:
- Silence notifications on communication apps.
- Close unrelated browser tabs or programs.
- Let team members know when you are in a focus block if collaboration is expected later.

Schedule short breaks between batches to allow your brain to reset before shifting to a new category of tasks. Even a five-minute pause can restore energy and prepare you for the next block of work.

Task batching is most effective when it becomes a habit. By consistently categorizing tasks, grouping similar work, protecting time blocks, and minimizing interruptions, you build a sustainable system that improves focus and productivity over the long term.

## Advanced Strategies for Task Batching and Optimizing Team Productivity
Task batching at the individual level improves personal focus and efficiency.
At the team and project management level, batching requires a more deliberate design of workflows, timelines, and [collaboration structures](https://wedo.com/features/meetings). When used strategically, batching can reduce project friction, improve resource allocation, and optimize the way teams handle complex, multi-phase work.

Here are several advanced strategies for implementing task batching across distributed teams and projects:

### Batch project tasks by cognitive load and required resources
Project managers can group tasks not just by type, but by the mental effort and resources they require. For example, research-intensive tasks, administrative updates, and client presentations demand different forms of preparation and energy. 

Structuring project timelines to batch high-cognitive-load tasks separately from administrative or procedural tasks prevents fatigue and maintains quality throughout project phases.

### Integrate dependency management into batching structures
Complex projects often involve dependencies where one task must be completed before another can begin. Using a Gantt chart or [project management software](https://wedo.com/features/project-management) that tracks dependencies allows managers to batch tasks in logical sequences.

Rather than scheduling isolated deliverables individually, teams can group upstream activities (such as research and development) into one phase and downstream activities (such as review and implementation) into another, reducing gaps and handoff delays.

### Align task batching with team energy rhythms and availability
Different teams experience peak energy levels at different times, especially in distributed or cross-time-zone environments. Advanced task batching accounts for these rhythms by planning cognitively demanding batches, such as creative strategy, product development, or complex problem-solving, during peak hours.

Lower-energy batches, such as administrative updates or reporting, are scheduled during slower periods. This approach improves throughput without forcing uniform schedules across diverse team members.

### Use structured task lists and templates to maintain batching consistency
Creating [standardized checklist templates](https://wedo.com/features/tasks) for recurring workflows ensures that batching remains consistent across projects.

Templates for project kick-offs, sprint reviews, client handovers, or internal reporting cycles help batch tasks into repeatable structures, minimizing planning time and supporting better execution. This is particularly valuable for scaling project management practices across growing teams or complex multi-stakeholder environments.

### Monitor and optimize batch cycles using project analytics
Effective batching is not static. Advanced teams monitor task completion rates, handoff times, and project bottlenecks over time. By analyzing how long batches take to complete and where slowdowns occur, project managers can refine the batching structure to improve delivery speed, reallocate resources, or adjust timelines dynamically.

Task batching at the organizational level requires more than just individual focus.
It demands a systematic approach to grouping, sequencing, and executing tasks across projects and teams. When implemented well, batching transforms project workflows from reactive task management to proactive, high-efficiency collaboration.

## Conclusion
Task batching is a fundamental shift in how individuals and teams manage attention, prioritize tasks, and maintain momentum across increasingly complex workdays. At the team and project level, batching strategies allow for better resource management, improved handoffs, and more predictable project outcomes. 
When batching is integrated thoughtfully into project workflows, through cognitive load planning, dependency management, and energy-based scheduling, it becomes a key driver of operational efficiency. But building effective batching systems also depends on having the right tools. Platforms like [WEDO](https://wedo.com/features) make it easier to organize work into structured, repeatable workflows.

Task Batching: How to Group Similar Work for Maximum Focus

In the fast-paced world of administrative management, executive assistants play a crucial role. The Swiss army knives of any organization juggle many tasks and deadlines while supervising those of others. Faced with these challenges, they often find themselves overwhelmed by routine, repetitive responsibilities. We immersed ourselves in the daily lives of 6 executive assistants who use the WEDO platform to understand the workings of their organization, the challenges they face, and the tools they have put in place to facilitate their management.

According to our study, the most time-consuming tasks for executive assistants revolve mainly around administrative functions. These activities, while necessary, tend to monopolize a significant proportion of their working time, preventing them from concentrating fully on more crucial aspects of their role, such as operational and strategic development.

Among the most time-consuming tasks in their job descriptions, the executive assistants surveyed identify the following:

**1. Meeting preparation:** preparing agendas and presentation documents, taking and sharing minutes, following up on decisions and tasks delegated at meetings,

**2. Diary management and meeting organization:** planning and coordination of appointments, team meetings, and conferences, taking care to avoid scheduling conflicts,
**3. Document preparation and management:** drafting, proofreading, and organizing important documents such as reports, presentations, correspondence and contracts,

**4. Project coordination:** managing and following up on specific projects, liaising between different departments, and meeting deadlines.

Internal and external communications, administrative support, and human resources management closely follow those.

## How to lighten the administrative load for an executive assistant?

When asked what tools were used to monitor collaboration before WEDO was integrated, the most common programs were Outlook, Word (for taking minutes), and Excel. However, these tools had significant limitations. Respondents reported difficulties related to the cross-functionality of information between different team members. For example, these tools were not conducive to **active, real-time collaboration when taking PVs**, making this task often cumbersome and time-consuming, and necessitating numerous round-trips. The systematic use of e-mail to distribute these documents wasted considerable time without guaranteeing effective communication.

Furthermore, the limited nature of these tools prevented efficient tracking of tasks and projects. Users faced significant challenges maintaining a clear, up-to-date overview of projects. In short, although these tools are widespread and familiar, their use in team collaboration and project management needs to be improved.

This situation underlines the importance of cross-functional tools and solutions to lighten the administrative workload. With the implementation of WEDO, the executive assistants surveyed were able to optimize their administrative processes.

### 1. Meeting preparation and management

![computerized agenda for real-time note-taking](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/reunion_ENEN_aad2ef7f0e.png)

One of the most time-consuming aspects of the job is the preparation of meetings. With WEDO, executive assistants benefit from automated management and considerable time savings in preparation and follow-up. The platform enables uniform management of minutes, clear distribution of post-meeting tasks, and automatic tracking of topics from one session to the next. Users report an average time saving of 55% for these tasks.

### Use case: facilitating HR processes and the transmission of specifications

When executive assistants are involved in HR processes, the integration of WEDO proves to be a major asset. The platform makes it possible to standardize on-boarding and off-boarding procedures by means of specific checklists. These checklists, drawn up for each stage of the process, automatically assign the relevant tasks to the team members concerned. This method ensures structured, efficient management of personnel transitions, eliminating the operational uncertainties often associated with the question "What steps should I take?".

By simplifying these processes, WEDO not only eases the workload for HR managers, but also contributes to a clear, documented handover of tasks and knowledge from one employee to the next.

![simplified hr processes](https://wedo-assets.sos-ch-gva-2.exo.io/Modeles_checklists_ENEN_fdf58af70f.png)

One of the decisive advantages of WEDO, highlighted by our management assistants, is the ease with which recruitment interviews can be documented in real time. Each exchange can be recorded directly in a standardized (and customized if required) agenda, enabling these interactions to be saved methodically and instantaneously.

### 4. Transmission of information

WEDO lets you link documents to tasks or meetings, ensuring that all the necessary information is in the right place. Global search makes it easy to retrieve documents, and to find a specific file based on a keyword found in the PDF file.

In terms of communication, WEDO users particularly appreciate the immediate visibility of entries and the ability to restrict access to certain information.
