For each task and person: R responsible, A accountable, C consulted, I informed.

R, A, C, I per task.

Place each risk on 2x2: probability × impact — treat high/high first.

Opportunities come from acquaintances not friends — activate 20 weak ties this month.

For each recurring decision specify Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed — leave no column empty.

Before any project starts, write a one-page charter answering six core questions.

List your top 10 risks with probability, impact, and owner; review the first Monday each month.

Turn a vague goal into a specific, measurable, time-bound formulation.

Compress any project into one page: why, what, who, when, success looks like...

For each task, set the autonomy level (1: tell me before → 5: decide alone).

Identify 5-7 tasks that must stay with you, so you delegate everything else with peace.

Before delegating a sensitive task, map who must know and who must agree.

A living table of every project risk: probability, impact, owner, action.

For each task estimate: optimistic, most-likely, pessimistic — then compute expected.

Each step on a "swim lane" for a specific role — exposes broken handoffs.

Per task: who Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed — no duplication for first two.

Per key stakeholder: what to send, when, via which channel, what to expect.

Project first meeting: explicit expectations — scope, date, quality, comms, alarms.

For every new addition request mid-project, apply one rule: it enters in exchange for something leaving, or waits for the next release.

When one person is needed for three tasks the same week, reschedule instead of stacking them beyond their capacity.

Within a week of any project delivery, gather to document what worked and what failed — before memory evaporates.

For every stakeholder, explicitly define: how often, which channel, what level of detail — no randomly-timed communication.
