Writing Guidelines
Accomplishments
- Start with action verbs (Completed, Delivered, Launched, Resolved)
- Be specific about outcomes, not just activities
- Quantify impact when possible
- Link to business value
Good: "Reduced API response time by 40%, improving user experience for 50K daily users" Bad: "Worked on performance improvements"
Blockers
- Be specific about the issue
- Explain the impact (delays, dependencies)
- State what help you need
- Include any attempted solutions
Good: "Waiting on API credentials from IT (ticket #1234). This blocks the integration work scheduled for this week. Need escalation to IT manager." Bad: "Can't make progress on integration"
Next Week Plans
- Be realistic about capacity
- Prioritize top 3-5 items
- Include dependencies
- Note any risks or assumptions
