Want to feel less overwhelmed with managing your time? Here’s how…

June 9, 2024

I don’t know if it’s a requirement of a manager or business owner to have to scarf down lunch between meetings as your laptop serves as an impromptu placemat or just a strong suggestion, but if this sounds all too familiar, then read on my friend.

Managing your time effectively isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s crucial whether you’re a business owner, a new manager, or a seasoned leader. In Episode 127 of Managing Made Simple, I dive deep into actionable strategies that help you optimize your time, streamline your team processes, and ultimately, feel less overwhelmed.

In this episode, I discuss:

1. The Power of a Calendar Audit: 

By simply revisiting your calendar monthly and validating the need for recurring meetings, you can free up valuable hours each week. Ask yourself, do you need to be in every meeting? Could a 60-minute meeting be trimmed to 30?

2. Delegating with Confidence: 

Learn how to effectively pass on tasks to your team, ensuring they have the context and confidence to succeed. Shadow sessions, prep talks, and debriefs can make a world of difference.

3. Simplifying Processes: 

Automate. Optimize. Remove steps. Even small tweaks like using task management tools or leveraging email automations can lead to huge time savings and lower stress for you and your team.

Every one of these strategies aims to help you reclaim time, which you can then use to focus on what truly matters—like growing your business or, hey, even taking vacation without being glued to your phone!

Here’s why you can’t miss this episode: It not only gives you the tools to streamline your daily operations but also tackles the bigger picture—how team time management directly impacts business growth and team morale.
