WHAT CAN YOU CONTROL?

YOUR OWN TIME As a leader it may feel like there's not enough time in the day! However, there's one thing you can control, your own time. Here's how you can manage your time better.


SAY NO TO MULTITASKING.

You might think that multitasking is the best way to get tasks completed, but in reality, it’s not. By focusing on multiple projects at one time, we can set ourselves up for dropping the ball.


IT’S OK TO DELEGATE.

By delegating effectively, you are setting your team up to work confidently. Delegation helps you assess who’s good at what and makes each team member feel valued. It’s better to excel at fewer tasks than to fail at all of them.


CLOSE YOUR “OPEN DOOR”.

Open-door policies are great because they make you look more approachable and available. But, sometimes, this policy can make you less productive. When you need time to work on a task uninterrupted, it’s totally ok to close the door.


USE YOUR CALENDAR TO YOUR ADVANTAGE.

It can be easy to list your daily tasks on your calendar without genuinely thinking about how much time each project will need. Plan out your day in blocks of time for projects, interruptible tasks, and meetings.


TAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF. Everyone needs some time to take a breath, even the most successful leaders! Working constantly leads to exhaustion and burnout, and it is a top time management killer. If you’re always going, you’ll begin to lose concentration and have less energy to get things done.
