Introduction

Projects in Motion are structured containers designed to organize tasks, stages, and workflows around a specific goal. Unlike folders, which group work thematically, projects provide a framework for sequencing tasks, tracking progress, and visualizing dependencies. With stages, blockers, and multiple view options (List, Kanban, Gantt), projects give teams both flexibility and control in managing work from start to finish.

At a Glance

• Project types → Create regular projects for one-off initiatives or workflow templates (PWTs) for repeatable processes.

• Stages → Organize work into sequential steps; tasks move through stages to show progress.

• Blockers → Mark tasks or dependencies that must resolve before work continues, maintaining flow and efficiency.

• Views → Switch between List, Kanban, and Gantt to manage tasks from different perspectives.

• Calendar integration → Project tasks and blockers sync with the calendar, with clear visual indicators when deadlines or blockers impact scheduling.

• Flexibility → Projects support ad hoc stages, AI-powered workflows, and cross-task dependencies, making them suitable for both structured and dynamic work.

Conclusion

Projects in Motion are structured containers that bring together tasks, stages, blockers, and views to organize work around clear goals. They provide the framework for sequencing tasks, visualizing progress, and enforcing dependencies while staying tightly integrated with your calendar. Whether built as regular projects for one-off initiatives or workflow templates for repeatable processes, projects help teams run work more consistently and efficiently.

Key Takeaway

Projects give structure to your work in Motion — stages define the flow, blockers enforce dependencies, and views provide perspective, all anchored to your calendar for execution.
