We do a lot of work on visualizing projects. Instead of having a 10-page plans and priorities document, we would have it all on a couple of pages. We call it a canvas, and it's more like a map. It takes the essentials out of plans and priorities. If we did flip charts of the plans and priorities for department A, and we'd have about five flip charts, we'd put them together on a page. Anybody could look at it and know immediately what they're in business for. They'd know what they're doing, why they're doing it, and who they're doing it for. Again, plans and priorities shouldn't get into the “how” of it.
