ADVICE

Notify About Task Dependencies

  • Make sure everyone knows when others depend on them to complete tasks in group projects.
  • Inform people about deadlines and dependencies to reduce delays caused by bottlenecks.
INSIGHT

Bottlenecks Are Often Unintentional

  • Most bottlenecks happen because people don't realize the downstream impact of their tasks or haven't thought it through.
  • It usually stems from understandable timing issues, not malice or unwillingness.
ADVICE

Communicate Timelines Clearly

  • Clearly communicate timing and deadlines when handing over tasks that impact others.
  • Provide advance warnings and suggest backup plans to accommodate possible delays or conflicts.
