Your first task

Say what you want to have at the end, not the steps. Add a deadline and anything the CEO must not do. Good first tasks:

• "Review our main repository and list the top three improvements, with the effort for each."
• "Go through our open tickets and tell me which ones you can deliver first."
• "Read our business brief and propose the three most useful things you could take on this month."

1. The CEO answers in the CEO conversation. A short receipt comes first while it thinks.
2. A request becomes a work item with a key, for example AGT-1. It shows on the Board.
3. The CEO replies with a plan, what it needs from you, and whether it wants to hire.
4. Risky steps wait for you in Approvals.
5. When the work is done, the CEO reports the outcome in the conversation.

The setup page and the work item show the progress of your first task. See First-value tracking.
