Tasks are often assigned to fixed processes or projects. The aim is to prioritize them effectively, delegate them and complete them on time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The challenge is to have an adequate overview and use resources as optimally as possible. This means both teams and individuals can work productively, in an organized manner, with clear responsibilities and realistic schedules.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>How does personal task management manifest itself?<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are many different preferences, methods and tools for organizing, prioritizing and completing tasks in a timely manner. Tools may include calendars, digital boards, <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otrs.com\/otrsmag\/kanban-board\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Kanban views<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, to-do lists or whiteboards. Various approaches, like timeboxing, are employed to organize tasks and stay organized.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is always important that the approach works individually and that it also favors teamwork on the other. A brief example: A team member may plan his tasks using a digital task board. This gives him a good overview and creates transparency for his colleagues.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Task management vs. project management<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tasks may or may not belong to projects. To ensure that projects are implemented successfully and do not experience unnecessary delays, those responsible must spend time planning all of the tasks and their implementation. Project management software can support this effort.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ed34e37 elementor-blockquote--skin-border elementor-blockquote--button-color-official elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"ed34e37\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><style><\/style><blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\"><p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\u201cTask management is fundamental for both standard processes and project management.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"e-q-footer\"><cite class=\"elementor-blockquote__author\">Tobias Kortas<\/cite><\/div><\/blockquote><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6a1a22bb mastercontainer elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor animated fadeIn\" data-id=\"6a1a22bb\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeIn&quot;,&quot;_animation_delay&quot;:&quot;100&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><h3><b>Tasks, workflows and processes<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At work, many things build on each other: tasks are related to one another. This drives workflows and processes. As such, task management interacts strongly with <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otrs.com\/otrsmag\/workflow-management\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">workflow management<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otrs.com\/otrsmag\/process-management\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">process management<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is a brief overview:<\/span><\/p><ol><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Tasks<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: They form the smallest unit and represent defined activities to be completed and assigned to a specific goal. There is usually a responsible person and a deadline attached to the task.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Workflows<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: These consist of a sequence of tasks that are completed according to a specific pattern. Workflows outline how tasks are related to each other and how they are carried out. Good workflows promote collaboration and goal-oriented interdependencies between different tasks.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><b>Processes<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">: Processes are made up of several workflows. They are a recurring and holistic sequence of work steps that aim to achieve a specific result. Rules, standards or activities such as <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otrs.com\/otrsmag\/process-automation\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">process automation<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> help here.\u00a0<\/span><\/li><\/ol><h3><b>Examples of good and bad task management\u00a0<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The key word when it comes to successfully handling tasks is \u201cmanagement\u201d. Targeted management makes a decisive difference in the efficiency of a team.<\/span><\/p><h4><b>Example: Hardware for onboarding\u00a0<\/b><\/h4><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The following example contrasts poor task management with efficient and optimized management. The results in the onboarding experience are clear.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h5><b>Poor task management in onboarding<\/b><\/h5><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An IT employee is informed by email that they need to procure the necessary hardware for a new employee. However, the task was created so far in advance that it was lost in the employee\u2019s inbox. It was not marked as \u201cImportant\u201d or \u201cUrgent\u201d and no separate discussion took place about it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To make matters worse, the assignment of the task made little sense. The IT employee had little experience in this area and was already very busy with other tasks. The employee was frustrated. The task should have been assigned to an experienced and less busy colleague.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, it\u2019s time for the onboarding and all the required items are not available. The newly hired person has to begin onboarding without the tools required for his work.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h5><b>How to make onboarding better with task management<\/b><\/h5><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Task management thrives on structure and planning \u2013 and the IT employee\u2019s team takes this into account. Before he was assigned the task, a team meeting was held. All members briefly went through their current tasks, including their importance, urgency and prioritization.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Based on this, he was assigned the task with a generous lead time. He added the task to his personal task board, which he keeps a constant eye on. The task description contained all the important details. The task had deadlines for all subtasks and contacts in case anything is unclear or help is needed.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The IT employee was able to prepare the onboarding in a structured, calm and conscientious manner. There were no \u201cnasty surprises\u201d to fear. The new colleague arrived to find the hardware ready and available on their first day.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2><b>Important components of a task<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Individual tasks are more than just a bullet point on a list that needs to be ticked off. The details make all the difference: they vary depending on the complexity and depth of the planning. They provide structure and organizational clarity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-162ba13 elementor-blockquote--skin-border elementor-blockquote--button-color-official elementor-widget elementor-widget-blockquote\" data-id=\"162ba13\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"blockquote.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><blockquote class=\"elementor-blockquote\"><p class=\"elementor-blockquote__content\">\u201cIf a task has all the important components and sufficient information, it tends to be completed more quickly and with the desired result.\u201d<\/p><div class=\"e-q-footer\"><cite class=\"elementor-blockquote__author\">Tobias Kortas<\/cite><\/div><\/blockquote><\/div><\/div><div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-c6bbc6d elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"c6bbc6d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\"><div class=\"elementor-widget-container\"><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Information is \u2013 at a higher level \u2013 the main component of a task. In this sense, the requirements of task management overlap strongly with those of <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otrs.com\/otrsmag\/information-management\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">information management<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. The task details can ultimately be broken down and categorized in a meaningful way, as shown below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Title and description\u00a0<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The title should be as meaningful as possible. It should indicate the context and not raise any questions for the person responsible. In addition, the description must be as clear and concise as possible and contain the desired goal.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Responsibilities<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The task must first be clearly assigned to a person with primary responsibility. This may also be several team members at once. Stakeholders should also be informed about the status of the task in question. In addition, there are often dependencies, so that communication with those responsible for other tasks is necessary.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Priority (importance)\u00a0<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Task priority is a simple clear classification of how important the respective task is. It helps those responsible with planning and deciding how much concentration to devote to the task. A traffic light system or gradations from priority 1 to 5 are therefore possible.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Current processing status<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having task progress defined is an important step. However, it is even more effective and time-saving if the processing status is displayed directly.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">These assignments, for example, make sense:\u00a0<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPlanned\u201d<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cIn progress\u201d<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cUnder review\u201d<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cRevision\u201d<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cCompleted\u201d<\/span><\/li><\/ul><h3><b>Time period and effort<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For most tasks, the end date \u2013 often called the deadline or due date \u2013 plays an important role. Less attention is usually paid to the start date of a task, but it is more important in terms of duration.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those who focus exclusively on the end date have to estimate for themselves how much effort the task requires. It makes it hard to consider room for disruptive factors and are more likely to miss the deadline. If both the start and end date are specified, there is clarity on how and when to tackle it.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Attachments \/ resources<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Successfully completed tasks don\u2019t just happen. Attachments with documents containing further information, samples, examples or descriptions of contexts are often required. These help the person responsible fully understands a task and can complete it with the desired result.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Such attachments can also contain working materials or exemplary solutions of comparable tasks. Attachments work best when they are part of a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/otrs.com\/otrsmag\/knowledge-base\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">knowledge base<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, providing access to relevant knowledge in a structured and clear way.<\/span><\/p><h3><b>Hierarchy and subtasks<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most tasks are related to other tasks. There are often higher-level tasks that are broken down into subtasks. This structure defines the procedure more precisely and monitors progress more granularly.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2><b>Task management methods<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are various approaches to task management. All can be effective depending on the type of task, the collaboration model and individual preferences.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here is an overview of a few methods as examples.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><b>1. To-do list<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The simple To-do list is the basis of task management. It is a simple but effective method for organizing tasks. It is advisable to prioritize the respective tasks or to create a ranking according to importance.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, the six most important tasks can be placed on a to-do list each day. The list is ranked in order of importance or urgency.\u00a0<\/span><\/p><h3><b>2. Kanban<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Kanban board can be digital with drag \u2018n drop tasks or physical with sticky notes.

Timeboxing<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Timeboxing works as a time management method. Instead of using a list, a worker enters tasks \u2013 with a specific timebox \u2013 in a calendar. Such a box sets a fixed time for the task\u2019s completion.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Timeboxing can be combined with the Pomodoro technique. This is a system in which one works with focus for 25 minutes and then takes a break for 5 minutes. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><br \/><\/span><\/p><h3><b>4. Not-to-do list<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This method reverses the idea of the typical to-do list \u2013 and can also be used alongside one. Workers write down the tasks that they can skip, postpone or delegate. It helps them to reduce stress and focus on important tasks.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This approach can help enormously with prioritization.

Agile task management (Scrum)<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This method is aimed at teamwork. It has spread from agile software development and provides clearly defined processes for working together while handling tasks on one\u2019s own.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Scrum is particularly suitable for teams that complete their tasks in sprints (e.g. in 2-week cycles). These teams coordinate regularly in meetings, such as short stand-ups. A scrum team typically consists of a product owner, a scrum master and developers.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><h3><b>6. Getting things done (GTD)<\/b><\/h3><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This method is about breaking tasks down into specific steps and organizing them. It reduces mental burden while the task is in progress. Users record all their pending tasks in a system. This allows them to prioritize tasks without being disturbed and without the risk of forgetting something important. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/><br \/><\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><h2><b>How can software help with task management?<\/b><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Modern task management solutions provide an excellent overview of tasks, improve organization, put tasks in relation to each other, remind you of due dates, offer time-saving automation and much more.\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are the most important advantages of task management tools in a nutshell:\u00a0<\/span><b><\/b><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Users have a good overview by having tasks centrally collected in one place.

The suite contains an agent portal, admin dashboard and customer portal. In the agent portal, teams process tickets and requests from customers (internal or external). There are various ways in which this information, as well as customer and related data can be viewed. As the name implies, the admin dashboard allows system administrators to manage the system: Options are many, but include roles and groups, process automation, channel integration, and CMDB\/database options. The third component, the customer portal, is much like a customizable webpage where information can be shared with customers and requests can be tracked on the customer side.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t\t<div data-elementor-type=\"page\" data-elementor-id=\"18103\" class=\"elementor elementor-18103\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-748947f elementor-section-full_width elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"748947f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\" data-settings=\"{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_list&quot;:[{&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;_id&quot;:&quot;c4f773e&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_tablet&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_image_mobile&quot;:{&quot;url&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;id&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:&quot;&quot;},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_speed&quot;:{&quot;unit&quot;:&quot;%&quot;,&quot;size&quot;:50,&quot;sizes&quot;:[]},&quot;jet_parallax_layout_type&quot;:&quot;scroll&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_direction&quot;:&quot;1&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_fx_direction&quot;:null,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_z_index&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_x_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y&quot;:50,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_y_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size&quot;:&quot;auto&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_tablet&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_bg_size_mobile&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_animation_prop&quot;:&quot;transform&quot;,&quot;jet_parallax_layout_on&quot;:[&quot;desktop&quot;,&quot;tablet&quot;]}]}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-7995c19\" data-id=\"7995c19\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-a437045 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-box\" data-id=\"a437045\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-box-wrapper\"><div class=\"elementor-image-box-content\"><h3 class=\"elementor-image-box-title\">About Version 2 Digital<\/h3><p class=\"elementor-image-box-description\">Version 2 Digital is one of the most dynamic IT companies in Asia.
