# The Working out Loud

{% hint style="info" %}
**Ideal for**\
creative teams who want to be able to quickly sync with what other members are doing.
{% endhint %}

## Structure

A section in your comms tools where each member can have an open notebook / timeline where they share their thoughts and to-do's. 

For those who take random notes it's easy to replace note-taking tools with this 'working out loud' section.

### Examples include:

* A Discord section where every member has their own channel (and members use this channel to take notes about what they're working on). ![](/files/2DFWIo42sn1fFONHAx5P)
*

### Suggested When:

Creative teams who are working together to navigate the unknown.

### Known Pitfalls:

* Can be distracting and add to the noise organizations need to sift through if members aren't clear and concise with what they're sharing. 
* Members taking additional time to maintain their working out loud channels (editing & polishing text, etc). Suggested to have members simply replace their existing note-taking process with WOL to openly share their process and not add additional work effort.
