I am having that change in my career where I am about to get some direct reports, and not on a temporary basis. I am going to need to develop these reports so I can assign them decent sized projects and then monitor their progress.
How do people mange the GTD aspect of this? I am used to having a number of action items as waiting for across the reporting spectrum, but having bigger items feels different. I cant just track "I needed a completed file from them by now, where is it?" level, I need to build up to giving them things where I would expect longer turnarounds, but to show progress. I also feel like I need a view into my system where I am meeting with (person/team) so I can find all the stuff assigned to those people for the review and for the do step.
It feels like projects, but not projects where I manage, and I do not need to track the next action (the other person should or should be asking me for a task input to review/assess/assist with).
