Organizing by effort/value has been magical for us. Whether it's working thorugh a punchlist for a product nearing launch, or whether it's proioritizing initiatives for the upcoming quarter -- looking through the lens of what is easy/valuable, hard/valuable, etc, really puts things in perspective.

The easy/valuable stuff is obvious, just do it! The hard/useless stuff is obvious too, just let it be. And then the more important decisions come around which hard/valuable stuff to do.

Either way, all that is much clearer when laid out visually...
