Book Description

August 25, 2008
WORK LESS BUT ACCOMPLISH MORE Who has enough time today? E-mails alone steal so much of it.
GOAL/QPC and Peggy Duncan, one of the worlds top experts on time management, have teamed up to give you a nuts-and-bolts pocket guide thats sure to improve your effectiveness and efficiency and results are immediate! With The Time Management Memory Jogger, you'll spend less time working but get more done.
Respectful of your time, Peggy bypasses theory in this quick reference guide and gets right to your time management issues, with ideas for getting organized and creating a useful filing system plus you ll find links to the GOAL/QPC web site for Word templates that will help. Also a computer trainer, Peggy incorporates technology tips and tricks that enable you to get things done six times faster. The books visual cues, examples, design features, and clear, friendly language make it an easy, enjoyable read and you'll want to start changing your habits right away.
This pocket guide can be used alone or to jog your memory about what you've learned from our time management workshop. The Time Management Memory Jogger will help you make the most of every hour, every day. In the first week, you will save more time than the time it takes to read the book or your money back!

Here is what's covered.
1. Track your time to see where it's going. With a clearer picture of how you are spending your time, you will pinpoint the areas that need improvement.

2. Organize everything around you. Disorganization causes you to waste time when you do not have seconds to spare. When you clear the clutter, you will be able to think more clearly, make better decisions, and create more effective plans.

3. Set goals and create an action plan. If you don't know where you're going, how will you get there? You have to determine what is most important, set priorities, and then act on your decisions.

4. Work through other time management challenges. Other time bandits you will need to examine include information overload, interruptions, and procrastination.

5. Examine processes and streamline how you work. Instead of always doing the work the way you always have, consider a better, faster way.

6. Reduce time spent in meetings. Too much time is wasted in meetings that do not accomplish anything. Pay more attention to how they are being conducted and make the necessary changes.

7. Delegate as much as you can. Do you have to do everything yourself? Enlist the help of other people so you can spend sufficient time on your core activities.
8. Discover technology that can save you even more time. Invest time in learning new technologies that you can use every day. You will finish much faster and make fewer errors.

To get work done, you actually have to work. Not just be at work, talk about work, or complain about how much work but work. To create time for the life you want, you have to work smart.

4.0 out of 5 stars A good method to organize your day!, October 29, 2010

This review is from: The Time Management Memory Jogger: Create Time for the Life You Want (Spiral-bound)
The sequence of steps recommended by the author is rational and feasible.
The key points presented in the book are typical areas for improvement for most managers and office workers.
It takes time and discipline to follow all the recommendations.

My major comment is that the book is too small, if they printed it a little larger it would have less pages and would be faster and more comfortable to read. This is the reason I did not give it 5 stars.
