On this page I share resources useful for improving productivity in the workplace.

By far the most effective and efficient method in my tool kit is the Crawford Slip Method. Here I provide a pdf that describes the Crawford Slip Method. The only update to this article is the use of post-it notes or index cards instead of slips of paper. The citation for the article is:

Ballard, J. A., & Trent, D.  (1989).   Idea generation and productivity: The promise of CSM. Public Productivity Review, 12(4),  373-386.

​
I obtained permission from the journal to share with others.

I think you will find CSM an excellent tool to aid in organizational development, problem resolution, and opportunity recognition to name a few.
