Efficiency, efficiency, efficiency. How we all strive to be as efficient as little worker ants in their giant colony.
Unfortunately, we don’t possess the same level of cohesion and productivity that exists in the ant world, instead, we look for tools to help us.
Businesses are looking towards technology as a means to help them achieve the most efficient, cohesive management possible. The only thing is, the tech world seems to be a bit exclusive – those who aren’t as tech-savvy as others are often denied access to the best new tools and innovation.
The following efficiency-boosting management tools are easy to use and ideal for all departments and fields.
Grapple
Grapple is the app that speeds up project and task management by using collaborative intuitive software.
Great for people who are working on the move, its voice recognition and project email recognition features means users can waste less time writing and sending emails, Grapple interprets messages and assigns tasks so you don’t have to.
You just need to say whatever it is you want, for example “Adam please send me the paperwork related to my tax case by 2pm next friday” and then that person, Adam, automatically receives this task along with the assigned due date.
This is a much easier way for people to communicate something as and when it comes to them, whilst writing emails is something people will put off until later and by then they might’ve forgotten what the task was.
Alternatively, you can create a project email inbox within the app, the tasks sent to the inbox will also be understood by Grapple and instantly passed on to whoever it concerns.
Simple, straightforward and effective.
