Blanca Garcia Gil at StaffPlus London 2023
summary
Solving the puzzle of staff+ time management means doing concrete things: write a responsibilities list and prune it with stakeholders so priorities are explicit; delegate incident on‑call work while staying an escalation point to develop others; use Will Larson’s archetypes to redesign the calendar and block weekly reflection blocks for planning and course correction; translate business goals into maps and a compass so teams make local tradeoffs; focus on energy not just hours and measure what actually changes.
