How to Use: Project Planner

Mia uses her 4-Column Laurel Denise planner as a corporate secret weapon, fully loaded with custom dashboards, color-coded graphs, sticky notes, and strategic inserts. Meetings, metrics, and big ideas — all mapped out and beautifully under control. I love how she strategically examined the information she needs to stay on top of everything and thought through the best way each of those things could be laid out in her planner. 

Tip from Mia (1/4):

Ready to Work

Mia uses her Plastic Inserts to divide her tasks by things being held up and things she's actively working on. This is an example of her "ready to work on" tasks. She defined what each space means and then puts the individual task sticky note in the appropriate section.

Tip from Mia (2/4):

Task Tracker

She uses the 4-column page that comes with her planner to show her task tracker with special colors and symbols to signify where she is on a task. I definitely wouldn't be able to keep track of all of the symbols and it turns out Mia is the same! She keeps a detailed key on a sticky note in the back of her planner.

Tip from Mia (3/4):

Supporting Projects

She uses these pages to write out the details of her supporting projects on sticky notes so she can easily move things around. She uses four of these pages in her monthly spread and each page contains three projects that support her goals and initiatives.

Tip from Mia (4/4):

Corporate Kanban

Okay, we love a Kanban project board at Laurel Denise and this board that Mia created is just amazing! I love the new sections she uses - "time permitting" and "scheduled for today" and "waiting on today". Absolutely amazing!
