FOCUS: Achieving Your Highest Priorities™ Microsoft® Outlook® Edition
SMS Covey TC To 56677
Challenge
With email, appointments and calendars in your face every day, the urgencies of the moment border on the hypnotic. Technologies once envisioned to liberate can paralyze us in an avalanche of data and clutter. Instead of tackling what's truly important, employees become distracted, robotic, and pressured to react to situations perceived as urgent. We devote our days to stomping out fires and get hooked on a false sense of heroism, accomplishing mundane urgencies at the expense of the wildly important.
Solution
When people's daily activities align with their highest priorities, they have a credible claim to better performance, higher achievement, and peace of mind. The workshop FOCUS: Achieving Your Highest Priorities Microsoft Outlook Edition teaches participants to apply the best principles from FranklinCovey's world-famous productivity training while using Microsoft Outlook as their scheduling tool. They discover how to stop "living in their inbox" and start prioritizing tasks, messages, and appointments to achieve what is most important to the organization and themselves.
