minus-square@jballs@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkEnglish39•edit-28 months agoI had a list of 30 items I had to prioritize with clients the other day. We ended up with about two dozen Priority 1s and the rest were 2s. So I had to go back and say, “let’s prioritize the 1s” and at least got them to agree to 1.A, 1.B, and 1.C.
minus-squareEpheralinkfedilink31•8 months agoThis is why I really don’t think absolute priority values work. I much prefer relative priority, i.e. dragging cards into an order. Of course, the challenge with that is in clarifying that it’s not a strict order in which tasks will be tackled.
