Task & Time Management
Do you often think “If I can just get through this week, I’ll be okay,” and the next week you feel just as out of control? In our current work climate, there just isn’t enough time to get your important work done. This is where time management skills and strategies come in. With proper support you CAN increase your productivity.
As your Productivity Coach I will:
- Customize productivity tools to maximize your strengths
- Show you how to prioritize your tasks so you work with less stress
- Simplify your routines so you can focus on the work that counts
- Streamline your work space to increase your productivity
- Leverage your technology to enhance your work
“Time Management isn’t about managing your time – it’s about managing your work.” Ellen Faye
“The difference between successful people and really successful people is that really successful people say no to almost everything.” ~ Warren Buffett
Focus and Setting Priorities
Saying “NO” is the most powerful productivity tool ever, however, saying “NO” isn’t always so easy. The Myers Briggs Foundation estimates that 46% of the US population are Perceivers (last letter – P or J). Perceivers inherently like to keep their options open, and it goes against their nature to say “no.” What are you supposed to do? Getting clear on goals and priorities helps.
As your Productivity Coach I will:
- Support you in developing a personal strategic plan to guide your work. This plan will help you to
- Clarify what’s important and set your goals accordingly
- Set priorities to support your goals and drive results
- Support you in conducting weekly focus sessions to keep you on target
- Help you to help those you work with to develop goals and priorities, and if desired, work with them as well
- Teach you my personalized system for managing ongoing priorities
