Use this matrix to separate urgency from strategic importance so you can decide what to do now, what to schedule, what to delegate, and what to stop.
URGENT
Delegate
Do now
NOT URGENT
Stop
NOT IMPORTANT
Schedule
IMPORTANT
How to run it
- List the items you are considering (max 15).
- Score each item for urgency and importance
- Place each item in a quadrant and agree the action.
Success factor
Do not treat everything as urgent and important just because stakeholders are loud.
Output
A clear action decision per item: do now, schedule, delegate, or stop.
