Workstreams
Perpetual areas of work with no end date.
When to use a workstream
A workstream models ongoing responsibility. “Customer Success,” “Site Reliability,” and “Content Marketing” are all workstreams — they don't finish, they just keep going.
If a chunk of work inside a workstream has a real deadline, create an initiative inside it and link the tasks to both.
Fields
- Status — active / paused / archived
- Assignees — the team responsible
Workstreams intentionally don't have dates or a definition of done. If you find yourself wanting those, you probably want an initiative or a cycle instead.
