Let's consider company agenda in the context of agenda hierarchy and how team agenda management software can be used:

• Company agenda is oriented at performance of projects. Managers divide projects into tasks. Then tasks should be integrated into staff agenda - in other words delegated to responsible performers. Managers make task assignments to employees or, if organization is quite big, add portions of work to each department agenda, so later this work can be assigned into more specific way by department head.VIP Task Manager is team agenda management product that allows real-time collaboration between persons and departments.
