Blog 5: A Message From The Producer

Hey!

My name is Steven, and I am the Herding Ghosts producer. My primary responsibility as a producer is to keep everyone on track and working in an orderly and organised manner. In addition to managing our timetables, I plan online and in-person meetings to ensure that everyone is on the same page. During our meetings, I take notes and check in on each member to see if they are doing well or if they require additional assistance. 

My function may not appear to be as thrilling or interesting, but it is unquestionably significant; like all the other members, I play a crucial role in what makes this team operate. I will speak a little bit about the applications and strategies I use to organise the group and their duties currently. The team uses a Kanban approach to organise their work. Kanban is a lean approach to managing and improving work in human systems. The goal of this technique is to manage work by balancing requests with available capacity and optimising the handling of system-level constraints. Kanban is used on Trello, an online management programme. Each member will construct a task using cards, and each assignment will be described and assigned a deadline. At the conclusion of each working week, we will assemble and review the Trello board to complete tasks and display the progress we have achieved. 

That pretty much covers the role and responsibility I have as a producer, thank you so much for reading and I cannot wait to disclose more information about our game soon!
