The Effort to Impact Matrix is a simple matrix for prioritizing tasks. This matrix can be used to compare the impact and effort of different projects to identify quick wins, big projects, filler jobs or thankless tasks that you shouldn't bother with. How to use the matrix:

Step 1: Compile a comprehensive list of opportunities, problems to be solved, tasks and projects currently under consideration. Include ongoing operations and new initiatives that could potentially help achieve your business goals.
Step 2: Place each task in the appropriate quadrant based on your evaluation. This visual representation helps stakeholders see where to focus efforts and resources.

Growing organizations have countless to-do’s and only so many hours in a day (or weeks before a big launch) to get them done. That’s where an impact effort matrix comes in. It gives you a quick visual guide to help prioritize your tasks and know exactly what’s worth doing. Using our template, you can create a matrix that organizes your activities into four main categories: quick wins that are low effort, effort-intensive projects that provide long-term returns, fill-ins that are low effort but low value, and time-wasters.
