Hey Glare, let’s talk about cutting down time and costs on a big project. I’ve got some ideas on streamlining tasks, and I’m sure you’ve got a move to make it lean.

Sounds good—let's cut the fluff. What’s your top three streamlining moves? And how many hours do you actually expect to shave off before we start counting the real savings?

1. Set a strict 30‑minute limit for every meeting—no more than 5 participants. 2. Automate recurring reports with a single script, so you don’t re‑enter data. 3. Use a Kanban board that blocks any task after it hits a 48‑hour review deadline. Expect to save about 12–15 hours per week once those rules are in place.

Nice checklist—efficient. 30‑minute meetings will chop up idle talk, but watch for the “can’t finish in 30” trap. Automating reports is a no‑lose; just be ready to tweak the script if a data source shifts. The 48‑hour review lock is clever, but if you’re too hard‑pressed you’ll just stack the back‑log. 12–15 hours saved is good if the work actually moves, not just the clock. Measure the output before you declare victory.
