I'm a new executive, and my workload includes a mix of numerous small, ongoing tasks and tracking projects that, unfortunately, didn't succeed due to changing circumstances. I need a robust system to track both the minutiae of daily operations and the broader, "failed" projects. Are there tools you use that you would recommend for this dual purpose?

Airtable is my favorite. It's super flexible and allows me to track day-to-day tasks and larger, more complex projects. You can customize it to keep track of project outcomes. It also integrates well with other tools you might already use, which helps keep everything in one place.

Congrats on the new role! I’ve found Notion super helpful for tracking both daily tasks and long-term projects (even the "failed" ones for future insights). Airtable is another great option if you like a spreadsheet feel but need more flexibility. Those are the two i'm familiar with and have liked!!

Trello, Asana, Monday, probably 100 more out there too. Absolutely recommending some kind of project management will make your life and your team's life so much easier. Quick snapshots of tasks and how they are broken down. Maybe make a wish list of top 3 things you want and compare and contrast some different options.
