It’s catching on! – Daily aggregation for continued improvement.
When I ask business owners, production managers, front line workers where they feel they are most ineffective during their day the common answer is “I think its X.” With “I don’t know” being a close second.
When my customers begin working with me to improve the work-flow and day to day business my first step is to gather information to help define the true issue. Many of you have experienced one of my data logging forms in the way of a sheet that records your activities throughout the day. Today I was pleasantly surprised when I found an email me from the team at Tungle.Me. Inside this mysteriously titled “Tungle.me Manifesto | Facebook | Best Practices” email they had a link to something great:

At this site they describe empowering the calendar to work as more than just a static reference as a reminder tool and turn it into a powerhouse of information that will work to proactively optimize your daily routine. It’s analytics for your day! I am really excited to see where this is going as I know that it is already an instrumental part of my process but this looks to make it more seamless and much richer in capability.
The ability to aggregate data from your calendar, FourSquare, Facebook, Yelp etc. and use this to help you tune your life is invaluable. Most people are shocked when I show them what they spend their average week DOING. Wait till I can show you WHAT you are about to do and WHY. Working then to set you up to do everything you want to do and fit the stuff you have to do in as efficient a manner as possible!
