If your project management software implementation includes asking team members to enter time in the system, then you will want to develop a communication plan to make the effort fun. Again, this top ten list is from one of our culturally young customers that wanted to use the 'carrot ' method to incentivize their team to enter time on a daily basis. Here are the final two reasons they came up with for tracking time in Project Insight: #2 - Because your granddad punched that time clock on the shop floor every day for 30 years, and you can't click a mouse? #1 - Because it's the second more fun thing you can do with your right hand.
We hope you had a good laugh over this list. Feel free to add your fun reasons as comments here.
About CynthiaWest
I consider myself a 'serial entrepreneur.' I was brought on board in 2002 to launch Project Insight's sales and marketing efforts. I spent the 1990s in Silicon Valley working at 3 different start ups. I was part of a management team that took one company public, and another start up was acquired by RR Donnelley & Sons. If it isn't fast paced, it isn't fun!
