here are some tips for improving productivity

optimize meetings

• set an agenda

• create an action list of the points to be followed up and by whom

• for the tangent issues , create a list and discuss it separately rather than waste everyone’s time

schedule time for emails – dedicate two or three times in a day when you schedule an email , exceptions are when urgent emails need to be replied

write down the list of things that need to be done the next day – this way you will not forget

schedule the list of tasks that are to be done on a calendar – this way tasks will get accomplished

sort the tasks by priority , deadline , the amount of time it would take to complete , if it can be delegated

take small 15 minute breaks during the workday – it definitely helps
