#13 Timeboxing

Where:  

Zoom

The topic:

Timeboxing is the method and mindset of: selecting what to do, before the day’s distractions arise; specifying each task in a calendar, including when it will start and finish; focusing on one thing at a time; doing each to an acceptable (rather than perfect) standard.

Timeboxing - The Power of Doing One Thing at a Time is the definitive work on this underestimated, overlooked practice. Published by Penguin Random House and launching in January 2024, it has already won over publishers around the globe with translation rights sold in over 30 languages. 

Attendees will learn what timeboxing is and why it's crucial for professionals, discover its six key benefits, start right away, and witness the overwhelming evidence that it works. 

This micro-talk will be held in English, on Zoom.
