Replacing a whiteboard with a live operating dashboard.

The team already had a physical Veralto Daily Management board. I translated its hand-drawn charts into a digital Smartsheet experience that a mostly remote team can open anywhere, update from one place, and share with leadership at a glance.

01

The challenge

A physical management board could not serve a remote team.

Veralto Daily Management helps teams see performance at a glance and course-correct when a metric is off track. Ott marketing had already implemented the practice with hand-drawn charts in a conference room, but more than 70% of the team no longer worked from the office.

The team needed the same operating view in a form everyone could access, with history that would remain available throughout the year and a link leadership could open when needed.

The briefPreserve the management practice. Move the experience from the wall into the team’s everyday digital workspace.

02

The approach

Digitize what worked, then remove the weekly upkeep.

Start with the existing board

I translated the hand-drawn charts and established Veralto structure instead of redesigning the management practice itself.

Use a familiar platform

Smartsheet was already becoming part of the team’s working environment, making the dashboard easier to find and adopt.

Separate input from presentation

Metric owners update one simple report each week; automated reporting carries the values into the dashboard.

Make the signal immediate

High-level measures sit at the top, with clear green and red states that show whether the team is winning or needs to act.

03

The system

One place updates the numbers. One place runs the meeting.

Weekly input

Give every metric an owner and backup

Clear ownership, prior-week guidance, and a consistent data structure keep weekly entry predictable.

Live view

Keep the operating signals at the top

The current result and winning-or-losing status are visible before anyone examines the supporting trend.

Meeting rhythm

Support the way the team already meets

The dashboard is ready for Monday’s discussion, while a monthly facilitator rotation helps more people learn to run the practice.

Leadership access

Make the same view easy to share

A single link gives leaders the current picture without requiring a conference-room visit or a separate presentation.

04

The result

The physical board became a shared operating view.

The team can now access Daily Management from wherever it works. People update one familiar report, the dashboard carries the high-level metrics forward, and the year’s history remains visible rather than disappearing from a whiteboard.

  • No dependence on a physical conference room
  • One simple weekly update path
  • Scannable red-and-green operating signals
  • A leadership-ready view available by link
“I took what we were doing in a physical room and put it into a digital environment that works for a mostly remote team—and can be shared with leadership at a glance.”
