The Productivity Challenge: Working Smarter, not Harder
More than just cliché, Working Smarter is imperative for every employee. And yes, the skills for higher productivity, control, and focus can be learned and integrated into your organization.
Both the Gartner Institute and the American Management Association reported that the average office worker is spending over 2 hours per day in their inbox simply dealing with the deluge of email and electronic information. This coupled with constant juggling of priorities, meetings, deadlines, projects and commitments characterize today’s work environment.
And the results are concerning; longer working hours, increased stress, errors, absenteeism and employee turnover to name just a few.
By the time you leave, you will have:
o Discussed the impact of the most common productivity challenges for your organization.
o Reviewed the fundamentals of optimizing technology usage in the workplace, specifically Microsoft® Outlook, MS Exchange service and Blackberry.
o Identified several productivity strategies which you can apply immediately following the session.
o Link common productivity challenges to competencies within a workplace culture.
