Using Standardisation to Work More Efficiently
Hot on the heels of Andrea’s free webinar, There IS Enough Time, it’s time for another blog featuring our tried and tested time management tips. We hope you found the webinar helpful, but remember that is not all Andrea has up her (very efficient) sleeve.
The best is yet to come, in the form of her first online time management course launching on 10th July. For now, here’s how to work more efficiently by creating standardised templates for frequently-used documents.
Think about how much time you spend typing up and sending similar letters and emails. How long does it take you to compose each one? We are willing to bet that it adds up to a decent chunk of your working week. Did you know there is an unbelievably easy, yet effective way of reducing the time you spend on these tasks? All you need to do is create a standard template for each of your most common scenarios. Not only will this save you time, it will save you the frustration of repeating yourself!
