TRANSCRIPT

In our office, we often split large projects into smaller tasks to make them easier to manage. We separate these tasks based on who is best suited to complete them. Meetings to discuss progress take place every week, and they are held usually in the conference room. During these meetings, we realize that some tasks need more time or help from other team members. Everyone is encouraged to take part in these discussions so that we can work together to solve problems. After the meeting, we file all the important documents in the system and classify them by project. This helps us stay organized and ensure that we can quickly find the information we need later.
