Chapter Seven of The Manager's Week: Where a Manager's Hours Go.

Abstract

Fifteen working pages, the diary, the counts, the note upward, the returned decision and the agreement, ready to carry into a week. The chapters of this book describe five practices as people doing them. This chapter holds the working pages: the diary, the counts, the question card, the one-page note, the lists and the agreements that the earlier chapters point to and do not print. Each page is meant to be photocopied, filled in by hand and kept in a folder that the convenor of Chapter 6 looks after. Nothing here needs software. The pages follow the order of the first ninety days, not the order of the chapters. Each opens with a line saying where it comes from and when it is used. Where a page gives a script, the words are a starting point; say them in your own voice. Where it gives a time, the time is a planning guide from practice, not a finding.
