3.7 Just Say No

Course Overview

Having a leadership role in an organization can take over every waking hour of the day, and probably cut into your sleep as well. Managers quickly realize they need to use every time management tool at their disposal. Calendars, to do lists, and organizational tools help, but at some point, you discover that you simply can’t do everything you want to in a day. This discovery can lead to a sense of panic and fear that you can’t keep up.

It may seem counterintuitive but doing less can help you accomplish more. By identifying your priorities, you can concentrate on what matters and let the rest go. That means learning when to say no.
