Yuvraj’s approach
Identify the main communication challenge.: Team only shares 1 overlap window daily because of which critical information gets delayed at times. Reports show missed deadlines and productivity loss due to unclear handoffs and fragmented communication.
Propose one tool or process change to address it.: Adopt a structured handoff protocol using a shared asynchronous slack channel plus a lightweight project tracker like Notion, etc. Create necessary columns and each team documents progress, blockers and next steps before the overlap time ends. Use the 500$ budget for a simple workflow automation tool to integrate slack with the project management tool that auto summarises updates and sends reminders on the channel for everyone to see to increase visibility and accountability across time zones.
Explain why this choice outranks others.: -Reduces dependency on real time overlap -Fits budget within 500$ using tollls and integrations. -Minimises workload with 1 structured update per day -Scalability across time zones -Increases accountability and visibility
Describe how you will evaluate the change's success.: % of tasks completed on time Reduction in rework or duplicate effort Feedback survey to ask team members how productivity has improved Compare velocity before and after process change
