Weekly review: what it is and what it means

The weekly review is a 15-20 minute review session, ideally on Friday afternoon, that closes the week just ended and prepares the ground for the next one. It is not a simple calendar check: it is an act of closure that gathers accumulated inputs, analyzes the gap between plan and reality and produces updates for the following week. The three structuring questions are: what was completed, what slipped and why, what should be rescheduled or dropped.

Distinctive: act of closure
Distinctive: gap between plan and reality
Essential: 15-20 minute review session
Essential: three structuring questions
Constant: Friday afternoon
