Then, organize the files in ways that lend themselves to being (found and) used.Ĭan you find the research and rationale you need to remember and revisit your choices and decisions? Does the organization of your files support continuous and cohesive cycles of learning? If not, play around with a new folder structure! The Bottom Lineĭo you create files just to store them, or do you intend to use them? If you intend to use them, give some thought to who will use them, how, when, and why. One file will contain research, decision rationales, plans, and reflections. Rather than organizing files by business function or file type, we are organizing them according to topic, project, or thought process. So, we are experimenting with a new folder structure. I wanted to document our knowledge in cohesive cycles, not discrete activities or efforts. I wanted to be able to see the whole thread in one place, to see the continuous thought process, the evolution of ideas, and the roots of decisions. And/or, I’d have to remember where we stored our research on the options and best practices and then pair that with the meeting notes to get the full picture. When something didn’t work as we’d hoped, we’d say, “Why didn’t we do X instead? Why did we choose to do Y?” Well, to answer that question, I’d have to figure out during which meeting we discussed it and look up those meeting notes to find our rationale. We felt the impact of this file folder structure each time we got to the end of our cycle of learning. Evaluations were saved with “business analysis & improvement.” Reflections were in another set of meeting notes.
