Creating Productivity in Your Workday

278: Creating Productivity in Your Workday 

Today, I'm joined by Leslie Shreve, a workload and productivity expert, and the founder of Productive Day. She’s also the author and creator of Taskology, a comprehensive system designed to help manage tasks, time, email, and information. In our conversation, we’ll explore the distinction between organization and productivity, uncover where time might be slipping away in your workday, and dive into much more. 

Topics Mentioned:

• Organization

• Productivity

• Task Management

• Methodology

Key Thoughts: 

• Any process is only as good as the way that we apply it and stay consistent with it. It's the inconsistencies that usually catch us. It's not the lack of the process itself in most cases.  Michele Williams 

   

• I quickly dispensed with the whole notion of getting organized because that's not it. That's not even the first step. That's not even a step. It's a byproduct. Because when you learn how to become more efficient, effective, and productive, automatically you're going to be more organized.  Leslie Shreve 

   

• A system or a methodology is only as good as we follow it and stay, on top of it.  Michele Williams 

   

• The three places where time and productivity are hiding are in your task management process, your information management process, and your email management process.  Leslie Shreve
