Too often business leaders are forced to choose between the needs of their company and the needs of their employees. It’s a lose/lose scenario leaving managers burned out and workers seeking other opportunities.
At Work for Humans, we believe work can be designed differently.
When managers are given the tools they need to design work their teams love, work becomes irresistible, employees passionately buy into their roles every day, and your company takes measurable strides towards your vision.
The Bubble Chart is one of those tools.
The Bubble Chart is a practical tool managers can use to curate work their teams love, while also ensuring the work being done is highly aligned with the mission of the company.
In this episode, Dart and Shalini go deep on the Bubble Chart. They discuss how leaders can use the bubble chart to analyze what projects their teams are working on and how much value each project is adding to the company.
They also discuss how using the Bubble Chart can help individuals lead up and down the chain of command, align priorities between teams and departments, promote team member growth, and much more.
