How to Use Workflow Mapping to Improve Efficiency and Productivity

If you are working on a project that involves multiple steps and different people, workflow mapping might be just the thing to get your team on the same page. It also helps you determine which parts of the process can be improved to ensure efficiency and productivity.

Before you begin, it is important to identify the right business processes. You should consider your company's overall goals and prioritize processes based on their importance to your organization.



For example, if one of your team members needs to upload an important file and it takes them hours to do so, this might be a bottleneck that could be fixed by adding or eliminating some steps from the process.


You should gather information about the process from a number of sources, including stakeholders and employees. The more in-depth the research, the better you will be able to map the process out in a way that makes sense for your business.


Once you have gathered all the necessary information, create a workflow diagram that clearly depicts the process. Use arrows and connectors to show relationships between steps and make it easy for readers to understand the flow of the process.


There are many ways to map out a process, but the most basic is to start with a flowchart. To make a flowchart, draw rectangles representing the steps and then connect them with arrows and connectors to show the flow of the process.


A process flowchart can be as simple or complex as you need it to be. However, it is usually a good idea to use a more complex flowchart when possible.
