Leadership Standardized Work - LSW

A Leadership Standardized Work document helps you manage the regular activities performed by leaders at all levels.

Designing a robust system of regular checks, actions and reviews into the standard work of every leader will significantly improve the performance of your teams. You can also reduce the need for traditional process audits.

Assign actions to your team

• Assign actions in a team LSW

  When you create a General LSW document, you can assign actions to your team members.

  

• Find the action in a personal LSW

  Team members who already have a personal LSW see the action there, under Items from other LSW Documents, with a live link.

  

• Update the action on My Dashboard

  Otherwise, the action is displayed on the My Dashboard page, where they can update it.

  

• Create a personal LSW from the dashboard

  If they click Show Details, they are redirected to a new LSW document, which they can save. This establishes their own LSW document.
