Lack of effective time management habits can decrease a lawyer’s overall effectiveness and cause stress at home and at work. Managing Multiple Priorities will help you to focus on “what matters most;” increase personal productivity and maintain work/life balance.
You can tell a person's true priorities by looking at their calendar and their checkbook. How we decide to spend our time is a function of what we really value the most. The roles and expectations that we have accepted in life should drive the goals we set and the tasks we place on our daily "To Do" list. Managing time is, therefore, really a matter of controlling the "events" of our lives that will contribute most to our overall productivity.
Tom has shared these concepts with more than 1,800 audiences, helping them understand how to take control of the things they can control and let go of the things they can't.
Join Tom and moderator Maritza Rodríguez as they look into the true nature of time management. They will help you identify aspects of your personality that influence the way you manage your time. You will take away practical tips on how to prioritize, organize, delegate and minimize interruptions so you can devote more time to serving clients and developing new ones - while being less stressed and more effective in the process.
