Action Method helps you to organize all of your projects and events into their most basic elements:
ACTION STEPS
are tasks that need to be completed. Each Action Step should start with a verb: ”Call Y,” ”Follow up with X,” ”Buy a gift for Z.”
REFERENCES
are notes, links, files, sketches – any information related to a project that gives context to your Action Steps.
BACKBURNERS
are the brilliant ideas that you want to come back to later, but are not yet actionable.
DISCUSSIONS
enable you to manage ongoing conversations across all of your projects with anyone that works with you. All relevant communications (shared documents, solutions to problems, feedback, decisions) are in one place.
EVENTS
are the key occasions/meetings/milestones/etc toward which you (and your team) are working. Events can be used to coordinate deadlines for Action Steps, aiding project management.
