Prioritization Matrix
What to do or what to delete?
HELP YOUR TEAM TO ORGANIZE AND PRIORITIZE TASKS BY URGENCY AND IMPORTANCE.
Using the tool, you’ll divide your tasks into four boxes based on the tasks you’ll do first, the tasks you’ll schedule for later, the tasks you’ll delegate, and the tasks you’ll delete.
What to do:
❶ Use a 2×2 grid on the whiteboard. Label the X-axis with “Urgent” on the far-left side and “Not urgent” on the far-right side. Label the Y-axis with “Not Important” at the bottom and “Important” at the top. You will get 4 quadrants in a clockwise direction: tasks to do, to schedule, to delegate and to delete.
❷ Write tasks on sticky notes and add them to the board, positioning them relative to each other based on their importance and urgency.
❸ Now that you have your tasks organized by urgency and importance execute them starting with the most important, most urgent tasks.
