How to turn tension into teamwork?

Every workplace has its share of personality clashes, missed deadlines, and unspoken frustrations.

But here s the truth: most difficult employees aren t the real problem, it s unmanaged expectations, unclear roles and lack of visibility.

We ve seen this firsthand across teams using actiPLANS. With better structure, communication, and clarity, tension often turns into collaboration.

Here s how we approach it:

Is AI really taking over project management? Or just rebranding automation?

There s a lot of talk about AI revolutionizing project management - predictive insights, automated reporting, even team sentiment analysis. But in practice, many tools still rely on historical data and offer results that feel more like enhanced automation than true intelligence.

Sure, it can speed up repetitive tasks and surface patterns. But when it comes to handling context, complexity, and human nuance - isn t that still our job?

Curious to hear from others! Where have you actually seen AI make a difference in managing projects?

Anyone here using a Pitman schedule? Let’s talk time off planning!

For those running 12-hour shifts on a Pitman schedule (2-on, 2-off, 3-on, etc.), you know how tricky it can be to balance rotating shifts with planned leave. We ve been exploring ways to combine this kind of scheduling with actiPLANS, and it turns out it can work pretty well!

How to combine Pitman schedules with actiPLANS:

  • Use actiPLANS PTO blackout days for the most critical shifts to prevent disruptions

  • Set notifications and reminders about planned and upcoming leaves and state holidays

  • Monitor leave time and balances reports to manage PTO usage efficiently

  • Encourage open communication between employees and managers about time off

  • Provide training for managers on handling workload and time-off planning

Let me know what do you think about it!

Unlimited PTO vs Trust-Based PTO

Unlimited PTO sounded great... but is Trust-Based PTO a better answer?

When Unlimited PTO first came out, it was seen as a win for employees no caps, no limits. But over time, many started to notice the cracks:

  • Guilt about taking time off

  • Burnout from not really disconnecting

  • No payout for unused time off

Now, more companies are trying Trust-Based PTO a more structured take where time off is encouraged and tracked, but still flexible.
