This week in the every Tuesday Club I discuss how most of us would all like a bit of extra time in our working day.  But as you can’t buy more time, we need to do something else.

I talk about how to work smarter not harder.

1.     You need to know what your goals are to make sensible prioritising decisions to manage your time.

2.     Identify what your time wasters are.  Work out if its emails, phone calls or visitors, and put in place strategies to overcome them.

3.     Manage your work relationships.  Most of us find that the biggest thing that takes up our time is relying and waiting on others.  It’s important that others, your boss, team and other key relationships understand what your priorities and objectives are and make sure you agree on these so that you can work effectively together.

It’s worth spending some time doing this as it will save you time in the long run.

 

Let me know what you have done this week to work smarter not harder.
