And you’re using Docs as your statement of work<\/a>.”<\/p>\n\n\n Brian continues, “Not only do you want it to be on brand, but you also want to bring more transparency to the process by bringing in the actual tasks your team will be working on. And so, we listened to you, and we decided to make Docs even more powerful.”<\/p>\n\n\n ClickUp’s product leaders Brian Shen and Zach Blodget demo the newest game-changing features in ClickUp \ud83c\udfa5 <\/strong>Watch<\/strong> all the incredible new features added to ClickUp Docs <\/strong>here<\/strong><\/a>.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n In 2018, Adam Grant pitched a Remote Friday experiment to a handful of CEOs. He shared extensive studies that showed that as long as people are in the office half the week, they can be more productive, satisfied, less likely to quit, and there’s no cost to collaboration. \ud83e\udd1d<\/p>\n\n\n\n The pitch didn’t go well with the CEOs. They were convinced that culture would fall apart and employees would procrastinate. Years later, a “global experiment no one consented to<\/strong>” forced organizations to shift to remote work. Today, many of those leaders have now committed to being remote or hybrid first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adam Grant shares insights about how we can be quicker to think again in a rapidly changing world<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Adam Grant expands on getting in the zones of deep work and separate periods of “burstiness” Holly Peck demonstrates how task relationships<\/strong> keep teams connected in three use cases:<\/p>\n\n\n\n “I would highly encourage you to step in there, be inspired, connect all of your tasks together, and create your own magical plate of spaghetti, powered by task relationships,” says Holly. <\/p>\n\n\n\n Hello, <\/em>task relationships<\/em><\/a>. Goodbye, spreadsheets. <\/em>\ud83d\udc4b<\/p>\n\n\n Holly Peck describes how project management is never simple<\/span><\/p><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n Related Productivity & Ops sessions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Brad Grealy shares his advice about what to do when a prospect has ghosted you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n “You have to think about all the noise that people are dealing with at any given time right now. All of us are in information overload<\/strong>, so we have to be really careful about where we pick and choose to apply our attention and focus. So you got somebody that’s disappeared on you. Well, you have to do something different<\/strong> and switch it up<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n He suggests:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other session highlights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Brad Grealy says, “What you do today is going to come around months later”<\/span><\/p><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n Related Sales sessions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n As ClickUp’s first marketing hire two years ago, Erica Chappell reflects on why a content program begins with people management:<\/p>\n\n\n\n “One of the biggest takeaways I’ve learned for myself going from a team of me\u2014as far marketing goes\u2014to a team of 11 between designers, developers, and writers is that people want to know why their work matters<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n She continues, “They’ll feel inspired, encouraged, and willing to put in extra hours when they know what they’re working on ladders up<\/strong> to overall company objectives, mission, and growth. When they don’t see that, it’s not encouraging to want to put in the extra time and ultimately grow professionally. They’ll start seeking opportunities elsewhere<\/strong>.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n Other session highlights:<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"LevelUp](\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/090657_LevelUp21_Photos_@DavidJonPhotography_9850_websize-1400x934.jpg\")
