Learning Objective

  • To determine the nature of e-mail & information overload in today's workplace.
  • To formulate a strategy for “splitting” work, personal, and junk/spam e-mails for greater efficiency.
  • To explain a very simple “rule” for managing all incoming e-mail that allows for both greater speed and prioritization of those messages and embedded tasks. 
  • To describe how to convert e-mails quickly into tasks, contacts, and calendar items.
  • To discuss embedded functions inside of your e-mail that allow you to “automate” certain common activities/messages. 
  • To determine how to greatly reduce distraction by setting up special notifiers and adjusting internal settings in both Outlook & Gmail.
  • To build a personal file “infrastructure” that can assist in achieving greater organization and possibly even “e-mail ZERO”! 
  • To describe how to better manage both sent and received CC's, Forwards, and Replies, to reduce confusion and increase communication capabilities.

Course Overview

Without a system for getting “control of the beast”, professionals spend much of their work (and personal) time spinning wheels and feeling highly unsatisfied.

Enhance your productivity and efficiency with e-mail today, and walk away with immediately usable tips and techniques!
