The method seems interesting from the "help people be aware of what's out there and how other people are working" perspective...However, personally, I get lost on one major point in two ways:
- Organized 20% time
First, for me, twenty percent time is that thing I work on when I'm blocked on something, have an inspiration, or just need a distraction from my major project.
Second, I can respect the organizational aspect and helping people understand how to contribute, etc, but really formalizing it in a table / chart and meeting to discuss it?
Maybe I am taking too strict of a view, but 20% time for me is that thing that is fluid and fills in the gaps or gives energy when I need a break from the day to day tasks.
- HappyTypist 11y agoExactly. I take 20% time to make my 80% time at least 25% more productive, whether that's by tooling, using new approaches or frameworks, or just need a small break.
