Manage visually - use the simplest tools as possible (sticky notes)
Use fewer tools e.g. no meeting minutes (only action list)
There is only ONE project status - use one set of metrics for everyone
Speak openly about politics
Use guerrilla tactics
Relax as often as possible

5. 3 rules for changing your work world
1. Separate between the expected result and the way you get this
result
2. Time with team has higher priority than e.g. zero mail box or
reporting
3. Be God! Define, decide, form, figure, build, design! There is
so much space in our work life and there are so many possibilities!
You are unforgettable. You are more than a small wheel in a
clockwork. You are unique.
You are the change you want to see.

6. Make change in your environment concrete
Write down your answer to the question:
What can I change / improve right now / here?
If you are alone, start implementing! If you are in a
group of people, discuss your ideas with 2 or 3
other people.
