Detailed Synopsis:

​

Priority Management's WorkingSm@rt using Microsoft Outlook Workshop has been developed to empower you to take control of your work. Priority Management teaches you how to change behaviours and optimise the use of technology to take control of your time, productivity, collaboration and work results.

 

Unit 1: Being Productive

This unit will introduce you to the challenges arising from the modern workplace expectations placed upon knowledge workers. You will also learn about the fundamental principles of productivity. With that context in mind, you will be in a better position to focus on the tasks with the greatest return on your investment of time.

 

Unit 2: Setting Yourself Up to Work Sm@rt

You will gain a deeper understanding of what’s available in the Outlook “toolbox” and set up the main components to enable you to work smart with enhanced focus. Learn how to increase your productivity and eliminate unhelpful habits.

 

Unit 3: Manage Your Workload with Tasks 

You will learn how to capture and plan the execution of your flexible pieces of work. You will also learn how Outlook can help you keep track of work you have asked others to do.

 

Unit 4: Managing Your Emails Effectively

We will show you how to better manage your email. You will learn how to extract the work from your Inbox and quickly file emails you need to retain. You will discover that you can work from a near empty Inbox.

 

Unit 5: Managing Your Time Commitments
