Signals of sustained intensity
How is this calculated?
Signals we analyze:
- High project switching (frequent context changes between projects)
- Above-average action counts (working at high intensity)
- High ratio of projects to designers (overloaded teams)
- Elevated daily activity levels
What no signals looks like:
Designers working on a manageable number of projects with consistent focus, balanced workload, and sustainable activity patterns.
Important note:
Work pattern signals only; not a measure of wellbeing or clinical risk. These patterns may indicate sustained intensity. The best way to understand team wellbeing is to check in directly with your designers.
