Step 2: Consensus
Next, you have to work together to agree on how long things actually take to do. This page shows you all the responses where your estimates were different. You’ll need to come to a consensus to proceed.
Below are all the tasks when you and your partner gave different estimates to the number of hours the task takes.
← estimated more hours → estimated more hours

Click the “Agree” button to agree on a new estimated # of hours. Remember, you’re looking for the total number of hours it takes to complete a task for the week, not the total of hours each person puts in.

Next, agree on the split between tasks
The below chart indicates differences in the perceived split in workload between you and your partner.
Remember that in these estimates 0 means “ does it all” and 100 means “ does it all”.
