Sometimes systems can be stifling and overkill, but can also a great way to stay organized. How do you find the balance between using systems to stay organized without being too rigid?

What I always try to stress with people is that following a rigid system can seem boring and annoying, but it makes things easier in the long run. Eventually people get to understand that there's a reason why they have to do what they do. It's important for people to understand the reason for doing things, otherwise it can seem like a waste of time and effort.

Agreed! Ultimately the reasons for doing those things, like keeping organized and efficient, has to matter to them also

Trusting my judgement, really. I'm happy going by the book for the most part, but if I see something I know can and should be done differently, I'm happy to pivot.
