Delegating to team members is difficult because one must remember when other people said they would have things done. The complexities we face in our own lives are tough enough to keep up with, let alone remembering the deadlines and commitments of a dozen direct reports plus another two dozen people in close proximity. No one seems to write down what people said they would do, by when, from the endless number of meetings.

ToDoMatrix can double your effectiveness as a manager within weeks of using it. People quickly discover that you have a system to track when they said they would have things done.  No longer is it a question of faded memory but rather deadlines are "remembered" with great accuracy.

Imagine making phone calls like this every hour:

You: "Hi Henry, when I bumped into you last month in the cafeteria, you said you have the new marketing study done next Friday.  How are you coming on that?"
