- Sticky Note Management
- If you need someone to do something you write it on a sticky note and attach it to their monitor – even if they are sitting at their desk at the time.
- If you need to add something to your own tasks list, you add sticky notes to your own monitor – John’s monitor looks like a bush it has so many sticky notes attached to it.
- Coin Toss Management
- If two people are capable of doing a job, the person who loses the coin toss is assigned the job – I just won a toss.
- If three or more people are capable of doing a job, everyone tosses a coin and the odd man out gets the job.
- Squeky Wheel Management
- If you need a certain piece of software fixed, curse loudly about how big a piece-of-crap said software is. If the person responsible for that software doesn’t fix it, repeat the process louder and with more explatives.
- Jedi Mind Trick Management
- Use subtle suggestions and creative language to convince someone that they agreed to do some task that they hadn’t really agreed to or was on your tasks list.
