I am curious about how everyone keeps their Design Team working together on the same page. Not only in class but in the real-world as well.
I am currently working at Design Center that has had a lot of turn-over in staff recently and we are at times scrambling to figure out what is going on with a prior in-progress client project. With our lack of knowledge -the client is frustrated - makes the company look bad - etc...
Should there be a computer database of all daily customer interaction or should it be a paper copy? Ideally - it would be nice to have a tablet/iPad that we could use as a notebook to electronically keep our notes - that everyone could access at any time. But there are millions of APPS - and who has time to figure out which one is the best one, most user friendly, etc.
Good team communication is crucial for Interior Designers - I just want to find a simple way to keep everyone on the same page without taking a huge chunk of time to document notes.
I can definitely understand this struggle because I have a hard time keeping in touch and up to date with my group partners sometimes. I'm not great with technology but I'm sure using a google doc or something along the same lines would be beneficial. I think taking notes is very very important any time you meet with a client or group partner
