Duration: 1 Hour 1 Category C PDU – Free PDU
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
