Project Management
Decisions don't exist in isolation. Track initiatives from decision through execution with integrated Kanban boards, progress tracking, and decision history.
The problem: decisions without follow-through
Making a decision is only half the battle. A product launch involves dozens of decisions—pricing, positioning, timeline, features to include, channels to target. Each decision generates actions. Keeping track of how these decisions relate to each other and what actions they created is crucial.
Most decision-making tools stop at the recommendation. Most project management tools start with tasks, disconnected from the strategic thinking that created them. You end up with decisions in one place, tasks in another, and no clear connection between "why we decided this" and "what we're doing about it."
Six months later, you look at a stalled task and can't remember why you thought it was important. The strategic context is lost.
The Board of One solution
Board of One's project management lets you group related decisions and actions together. See the full history of a strategic initiative, track which actions are complete, and understand how one decision led to another.
When you make a decision, the resulting actions flow directly into your project. When an action stalls, you can trace it back to the decision that created it. When circumstances change, you can replan with full context of what you were trying to achieve and why.
Create projects
Organize your work into projects or initiatives. "Q1 Product Launch," "Pricing Strategy Overhaul," "New Market Expansion"—whatever makes sense for your business.
Link decisions and actions
Every decision and resulting action can be tagged to a project. See all the thinking and work that's gone into an initiative in one place. Trace any task back to the decision that created it.
Track progress
Use the integrated Kanban board to track actions from "To Do" through "Done." See at a glance how your initiatives are progressing and where things are stuck.
What you get
Project dashboard
See all your active initiatives, their progress, and upcoming actions in one view. Know what needs attention without checking multiple places.
Decision history
See every decision related to a project, with full context and reasoning. Understand the "why" behind every "what" in your task list.
Kanban boards
Visual task tracking with drag-and-drop cards. Move actions through your workflow. Simple enough not to become work itself.
Progress tracking
See how many actions are complete, in progress, or blocked. Understand where initiatives are stalling and need attention.
Why this is different
Most project management tools are about tasks. You create to-do items, organize them, check them off. But where did those tasks come from? Why are you doing them? What happens if circumstances change?
Board of One starts with decisions, not tasks. Every action exists because of a strategic choice you made, and that decision—with all its reasoning and context—is preserved. This changes everything about how you work.
When a task stalls, you can revisit the decision that created it. When you need to explain your approach to a stakeholder, the reasoning is there. When circumstances change, you know exactly which decisions to reconsider. This is project management with strategic memory.
Example projects
Product Launch
5 decisions • 12 actions • 75% complete
Pricing Strategy
3 decisions • 8 actions • 50% complete
Q1 Marketing
4 decisions • 15 actions • 30% complete
Frequently asked questions
How do projects connect to decisions?
Every decision you make in Board of One can be tagged to a project. When a deliberation generates action items, those actions automatically appear in the project's Kanban board. This creates a direct link from strategic thinking to execution—you can trace any action back to the decision that created it.
Can I have multiple projects running at once?
Yes. Most solopreneurs have several initiatives running simultaneously—a product launch, a marketing push, a process improvement. Board of One lets you organize by project and switch between them easily. Each project has its own decision history, action list, and progress tracking.
How does the Kanban board work?
The Kanban board shows all actions for a project organized by status: To Do, In Progress, and Done. Drag cards between columns as work progresses. See at a glance what's pending, what's active, and what's complete. It's simple by design—powerful enough to track work, simple enough not to become work itself.
What triggers a replanning session?
You can trigger replanning manually when circumstances change, or Board of One can suggest it based on signals: an action has been stuck too long, new data contradicts original assumptions, or a related decision has changed. Replanning lets you revisit decisions with new information rather than continuing on an outdated path.
Can I export project history?
Yes. You can export a project's complete history—all decisions, their reasoning, actions taken, and outcomes—to PDF or Markdown. This is useful for stakeholder updates, board reports, or simply having a record of how an initiative evolved from idea to completion.
How do I know when a project is complete?
A project is complete when all actions are done and you've achieved the intended outcome. Board of One tracks completion rate and can prompt you to close projects that appear finished. You can also archive projects to keep history without cluttering your active workspace.
What if a project needs to change direction?
That's what replanning is for. When new information suggests your current approach isn't working, reopen the original decision (or start a new deliberation) with updated context. The expert panel will reassess and may recommend different actions. The project history preserves the old plan so you can understand the evolution.
How is this different from standalone project management tools?
Most project management tools start with tasks. Board of One starts with decisions. You're not just tracking what needs to be done—you're tracking why you decided to do it. This decision history becomes invaluable when things don't go as planned or when you need to explain your approach to others.
Part of a cohesive system
Project management connects the thinking to the doing.
From Decisions
Deliberation sessions generate actions that flow directly into project boards.
With Context
Your business context and data inform replanning decisions.
To Completion
Track progress and trigger replanning when circumstances change.
