What I wish I knew about time management 10 years ago • Good communication with others is key! • work with good people • respect other peoples’ time and priorities • share the load • Find synergy between different activities • Know what YOU have to contribute • Act in a timely fashion
Summary strategies • Prioritize • Get organized • Share the load • Recognize productive/unproductive times • Learn to say no • Take care of yourself and your loved ones
