5 Best Time Management Tactics

If you want to get more done in the same amount of time here are 5 excellent ways:

#1 The 4 Ds of email sorting each morning: Delete, Delegate, Defer and Do.

Spend 5 minutes first thing applying the 4 Ds to your inbox. Once you’ve deleted, delegated and deferred 90% of them you’ll be left with those that you must do. Do them. This creates a sense of momentum and progress.

#2 How middle and senior management can quickly identify what they should and shouldn’t be doing on a daily basis - ask how many £10, £100, £1000 per hour activities they are doing per day. If any activities are of the £10 per hour variety, urge them to delegate those.

#3 The Eisenhower Matrix allows you to schedule your week according to what's most important to you and what will have the most meaningful results. (see pdf for diagram)

#4 Only put 6 items on a day’s To Do list - make the first one the easiest and quickest (build momentum quickly). Make the second the hardest and probably most time consuming.

As Mark Twain said: 'Swallow a frog in the morning, the rest of the day can only get better.'

#5 - 3 reasons to conduct Meetings:

1. Create a forum to gain consensus

2. Make decisions

3. To build/strengthen a team
