After a long holiday, every working professional gradually returns to their post.

Pick a back-to-work template and turn it into your post-holiday recovery kit.

## 01

**How to quickly collect return-trip information?**

**"Collect information from hundreds of people in 1 second—saving time and effort"**

After the holiday, employees usually return to their posts from across the country one by one. Knowing each "Employee return-trip information" promptly becomes especially important, so the Organization can plan work assignments accordingly.

Sending Direct Messages to ask when each person is coming back, then copying, pasting, and saving everything into a Spreadsheet—the workload is huge and time-consuming. With DingTalk Docs, "Employee return-trip registration" can be Completed in just 1 minute. Spreadsheet supports real-time online Editing by multiple users, eliminating repeated manual Copy and Paste. Simply wait for Employees to fill in their entries, and you'll get a complete information Spreadsheet.

**How to set annual goals for 2022?**

**"Define goals and create OKRs—simple and efficient"**

At the start of a new year, it's worth planning out what you want to do in 2022—covering work, future plans, income, lifestyle, and more.

**The first step is to set an achievable flag for the year.** Open DingTalk Docs > Featured Template > "SMART goal-setting principle" to learn how to set goals correctly.

One of my goals is to get a promotion and a raise. Following the SMART principle, I'd set it like this: a Monthly content push with 100K+ reads.

S: The goal is to hit the KPI.

M: 100K+ reads.

A: Achievable.

R: Highly relevant to a promotion and raise.

T: Once a month.

The second step is to set your 2022 personal OKR plan based on your goals. Open DingTalk Docs > Featured Template, where the "OKR working method" is laid out as a Mind Map. After learning it, simply pick "Personal OKR plan" from the Featured Template to plan your 2022 simply and efficiently.

My OKR is for content operations. Following the OKR working method, I'd set it like this above.

**How to break down goals and execute them Monthly?**

**"Prioritize tasks to boost work efficiency"**

Once you have clear goals, break them down by month. Open DingTalk Docs > Featured Template, then Enable "2025 Monthly work plan" or "R\&D work plan" to achieve your goals month by month.

Use the "2025 Monthly work plan" to record tasks anytime, so everything is at a glance. Note:

① Prioritize urgent and important tasks first—focus on efficiency, but care more about results.

② Set deadlines and take them seriously, like commitments to yourself.

③ Be specific. If a task is too large, break it down into simple steps. This reduces memory load, prevents forgetting, helps you start work quickly, and makes good use of fragmented time.

**How to review issues during OKR execution?**

**"Review results to ensure goals are met"**

Did your expected outcomes get executed properly? Reviewing OKR execution issues weekly is the best way to check goal progress. Open DingTalk Docs > Featured Template, then Enable "Weekly work report (General)" to bring yourself one step closer to your goals.
