Interactive participation is expected.

 This workshop introduces best practice workload management techniques, that if implemented, will enable you to be more consistently productive and less stressed. The activities are informed by productivity research and best practice, including Brian Moran’s 12-week year productivity system. You will be asked to apply the techniques to your existing workload as part of the workshop, so workload management effectiveness starts directly.

 Workshop themes

In this workshop participants will develop best practice in:

• Task management
• Workload prioritisation
• Resource negotiation

  When working in a research environmnet with multiple responsibilities, it is invaluable to embed effective skills in workload prioritisation, resource negotiation and task management into your teams. These will help progress core research activities alongside maintaining other responsibilities.

  Development objectives

  By the end of the workshop, you will be better able to:

• Implement productivity best practice in a research environment
• Reduce the time spent in decision dilemma
• More effectively balance tasks
