Whether your organization's leaders are seasoned veterans or a rising stars, good leaders are always looking for an effective way to get their teams working together and doing away with pesky frictions that may slow down the org. Here are the five (free) tools that every premiere organization should have in their tool set.
Collaboration: Microsoft Teams
At first glance MS Teams seems counter intuitive and cumbersome, however, once your teams are aligned and using the tool daily that is when MS Teams truly shines. Also, note that it is a platform that can integrate other productivity tools like Trello or Wrike.
Live Notes: Google Docs
Sometimes working meetings turn into a brainstorming session. Google Docs is perfect for quickly collaborating and putting together a back of the envelope doc that can later be refined. Google has perfected multiple contributors in a single doc.
Actions Tracker: Trello
Trello's light weight footprint and ease of use is excellent for creating on the fly scrumboards to capture action completion by members of your team. It is easily one of the more visual ways to understand upcoming tasks and their completion.
Social Media: Facebook
FB needs no introduction. If your organization could have only one social media outlet then might as well make it Facebook. Chat programs can only carry your outreach so far. The options to publicize events to your members are unparalleled.
Web Site: Wix
Wix has made a name for itself as the fastest way to create a web page without ever touching code. You can setup a web page and publish in minutes. It is a great tool for an organization seeking to establish internet presence as soon as humanly possible.
