1	INSTRUCTIONS	WORKING DAYS BY MONTH + IDEATION TIME
2	Even though full time is considered 40 hours/week, we want to ensure folx have the brainspace for ideation and creativity. Therefore, in SECTION 1, everyone should have 34.66 hours/month dedicated to just ideation time (34.66 was calculated by 1.6 hours x the number of working days and then averaged out for the year, see column E for the math. ).	Month	Weekdays	Ideation Time (1.6 hours/day x weekdays in the month)
3	Find the tab with your name on it. Once you begin adding hours, the numbers will automatically tally.	January	21	33.6
4	SECTION 1: Add in estimated monthly hours for meetings and admin related tasks	February	20	32
5	SECTION 2: Add in expected PTO and time-off for holidays	March	23	36.8
6	SECTION 3: Estimate how many hours each workstream you are the driver on will take. You can rename the workstreams you're working on. For example, you can rename "WS4" to "O2W4" to be more specific.	April	21	33.6
7	SECTION 4: OPTIONAL. If you would like, you can track your actual hours and make adjustments for the future on how you need to spend your time in order to accomplish your KRs.	May	22	35.2
8	Your under/over resourced time should be within 5-10 hours each month. Which means if you are under-resourced by 5-10 hours, then this is not permission to add more work to your plate. Leave it as is. If you are over-resourced by 5-10 hours, then leave as is too and don't take on any more work. If you are under-resourced by more than 10 hours, then that's an opportunity for you to inquire with your manager for more professional development/leadership opportunities. If you are over-resourced by more than 10 hours, then you and your manager need to have a conversation about what to take off your plate. This is NOT permission to scrutinize how your direct-report has come up with their time allocation. If you feel your manager is not supporting you, then loop in HR to help support.	June	22	35.2
