How Talentwork manages projects more efficiently and without communication noise thanks to Freelo

Monika Martochová answers on behalf of Talentwork.cz

For over 14 years, Talentworkprofessionals have been teaching to develop thepotential and talents of individuals, teams and companies. They were the first in the Czech Republic to help companies introduce remote working. They know a thing or two about it themselves, with a whole ⅔ of their employees working remotely, even from Costa Rica. Their 24-member team is constantly growing, so assigning tasks via email was no longer the right thing to do. How does Freelo help them in their newly implemented processes?

"All tasks must be in Freelo (especially not in email). As the company has grown and more colleagues have become involved, the pressure to communicate effectively has increased, and thanks to Freelo we've been able to do that."

With the growth of the team came the need for new work processes

Tasking via emails, spreadsheets and checklists was no longer sustainable. That's why Talentwork knew they had to make some major changes. They reshuffled processes, moved to departmental and project management and introduced Freelo.

"Before, it wasn't easy to just take over a task. Now, thanks to Freelo, the whole coordination team is involved and the coordinators are more easily replaceable."
