Not asking about procrastination, actual job duties. For me it has to be working on spreadsheets and presentations. What are the bottlenecks in your workflow?

meetings
Meetings and the most common way to combine two things:
- multimedia presentation;
- ensure people have paid attention to content.
They allow participation, but comments do that, too.
Screen capture isn’t widely used, but it does help and is typically the first thing that becomes prevalent in remote-asynchronous organizations. A version that I like is Amazon’s six-pagers: meetings have to be discussions about something well-defined ahead of time; therefore, people are expected to read a detailed document to participate. That’s enforced by having people sit silently reading the document for the first 10 minutes.
You can’t make every email a mandatory task because that would mean anyone can drop work on you, but we should normalize adding quizzes to content to highlight what people need to know—like team updates and new processes.
