The question of time management comes up frequently as I work with my executive coaching clients. One aspect of managing time is to manage your “time killers” – the things that take time needlessly. Which of these “time killers” are robbing you of your time?
- Unclear expectations/priorities
- Lack of authority
- Lack of focused work time – too many interruptions
- Clutter/being unorganized
- Lack of systems
- Perfectionism
- Indecision/lack of information
- Not enough sleep
- Inability or unwillingness to delegate
- Re-work
- Lack of training or technical savvy
- Mistakes
- Inability to say “no”
- Meetings that are not useful
What one thing is your biggest “time killer”?
What can you do to rescue your time from this “time killer”?
