    Communicate daily, especially about projects with dependencies. During your daily standup talk about your hopes for adjusting the plan. Agile teams welcome and plan for change, so there should be good ideas from your team members about how the rest of the workload can shift. You can use a spreadsheet, a calendar app, a project management tool, or a content management system. The format should allow you to add, edit, and track important information such as content titles, types, formats, channels, deadlines, statuses, assignees, and metrics.

    Lorsque mon calendrier de contenu prend une tournure inattendue, je commence par réévaluer les priorités pour déterminer ce qui doit absolument être publié à temps. Ensuite, je m'assure que toutes les parties prenantes sont bien informées des changements et des nouveaux délais. Avoir un peu de contenu intemporel en réserve m’aide aussi à garder le calendrier sur la bonne voie, même en cas de surprises.

    Je réorganise les priorités en décalant les contenus moins urgents afin de maintenir le calendrier à jour et éviter les retards. J’utilise des outils comme Notion pour déplacer facilement les dates et ajuster les contenus en fonction des nouveaux besoins.
