Description
In today’s workplace, leaders and their teams have far too many shifting or competing priorities to manage effectively. Challenges of all kinds can keep them from achieving desired results: inability to identify top priorities, constant distractions, pressure to multi-task, rambling meetings, email overload, 24/7 mobile technology, the inability to say “no,” and many others.
Traditional time management is no match for these challenges. Today, leaders and individual contributors must demonstrate two core capabilities:
- Managing Focus: They need the mindset, behaviors, and routines to sustain energy, attention, and clarity in today’s distraction-filled workplace.
- Managing Requests: They need the cognitive and verbal skills to meet demand and realize opportunities that surface every day.
It’s no wonder priority management is such a hot topic for today’s organizations. In this webinar, we’ll discuss ways to develop a framework to support high performance by:
- Applying clear criteria to identify top priorities
- Better leveraging physical and mental stamina
- Negotiating the terms of requests, so you can say “yes” more often
- Delivering the results that your organization and customers expect
