Morning Session - 1

The Personal Productivity Power Session : Email and Task Management

Email has managed to take hold of too many lives, distracting us from what we really should be doing by sucking us back into responding to messages coming at us on an ongoing basis. Task management is one of the hardest things to get a handle on, because many of us don't know the difference between a task and things like a project, goal, or something similar. Further to that, we often use the wrong tools -- and mindset, for that matter -- when dealing with tasks.

In this session, Mike will share the tips, tricks, and tactics you can use to treat email in a way that allows you to be productive both inside your email application -- and beyond it -- as well as work with attendees in a way that allows them to not only clearly identify what a task is...but to identify how to manage all the tasks they deal with today and going forward through the use of strategies and tools
