Over the last school year, one of the biggest issues we had on the ScriptEd team was an enormous amount of email clogging our inboxes. The whole team felt under the gun to keep on top of piles and piles of emails, and as time passed, the problem got worse. During our team retreat, we decided the volume of emails was not sustainable, so we looked for other solutions.
We're now Asana converts as of a couple of weeks ago. Asana is software that allows teams to work on projects collaboratively without sending emails. While we're still adjusting to the new system, there are definitely less emails in all of our inboxes, and we're feeling a little less frenetic. I'm also able to look at everyone's to-do lists and have a better understanding of everyone's capacity.
I'm sure there are tons of other products out there that help solve the email problem, so if you've got any thoughts or suggestions, let me know! In the meantime, if you're looking for an email alternative, Asana is great.
