Overview

How do we change our focus from what we KNOW to what we DO with what we know?

Convert your abstract ideas, plans, and proprietary knowledge into purposeful action with an innovative six-step approach proven to solve your business problems and strengthen your workflow.


It’s one thing to have a great idea—but it’s an entirely different thing to actually bring that idea to life. Consultant Adrienne Bellehumeur’s purposeful practices are your key to capturing our collective brains’ bounty—and to pull the most power from even the simplest of actions.

In The 24-Hour Rule and Other Secrets for Smarter Organizations, Bellehumeur draws on the fields of productivity, knowledge management, and design thinking to form what will soon become your and your team’s greatest work superpower. At the heart of Bellehumeur’s six-steps of Dynamic Documentation is the “24-Hour Rule,” a reminder that actionable items—like to-dos, deadlines, feedback, and observations—need to be written down and shared with others. Without embracing documentation—and other memorable secrets like “The Skill Stack Solution” and “The Groundhog Trap,”—our greatest plans and hoped-for solutions will easily slide into oblivion. 

What’s more, Bellehumeur’s Dynamic Documentation is a “zen” approach to information management, making documentation accessible, doable, and even appealing. Not only will this refreshingly simple guide equip you with an array of practical tools, it will also bring real joy to your everyday work activities.

What People are Saying About This

From the Publisher

The 24-Hour Rule is a wonderful guidebook for creating dynamic documentation that works from the day-to-day work you and your team are already doing. Read it, make dynamic documentation a team habit, and watch your team’s performance and belonging soar.”
Charlie Gilkey, bestselling author of Start Finishing
 
“If you think implementing and improving documentation in your business is something you can put off to ‘when you have time,’ you are putting your business at risk . . . The 24-Hour Rule gives you a crystal-clear path to unlocking value, creating team alignment, and building the foundation for your business to grow with ease."
Pamela Slim, award-winning author of Body of Work and The Widest Net
 
The 24-Hour Rule provides an exceptional framework and intensely well-thought-out steps, examples, arguments, and processes to cure our docu-phobia (or, just as bad, our docu-zealotry) to capture and share what we know, learn, and invent."
Jason Cassidy, CEO, Shinydocs and AIIM Board Member
 
“Insightful and applicable, The 24-Hour Rule is a guide for workers and business leaders alike in a world where the volume of information and data in an organization is growing exponentially.”
Tim Brady, CEO, Colligo
 
“Simple, powerful, and compelling . . . Bellehumeur shows the vital nature of documentation in building our personal credibility and how the 24-Hour Rule will make you stand apart among your peers. No fluff, just example after example of knowledge tools you can put to use right away.”
Brian Bench, former CIO, CNOOC International
