The work map
What the tool is
The Work map can be used by individuals or teams working together to recoup time – the most valuable commodity at work. It produces a graphical snapshot of the individual’s or group’s work and prompts a series of questions about how time is being used, where a disproportionate amount of time may be used in undeserving areas, what we want from others and they from us and how we can start to rationalise what we do and so start to use our time more effectively.
