8、n,” he says. “Thereby you are supposed to take the time to tidy up your work areas and keep your important files, manuals and reports in an accessible location, which will maximize your efficiencies.” Make a to-do list, then cover it upIt may sound weird, but it works, says Jessica Carlson, an accou

9、nt executive at Bluefish Design Studio which is an advertising consulting firm. ut offCarlson urges her team to utilize to-do lists to stay on track and highlight items that are a priority. “Cover up the list, with the exception of one high-priority task at one time,” she suggests. “This will allow

10、you to focus better on the task at hand; otherwise, it will be easy to get overwhelmed if youre reading through a to-do list that spans an entire page.

15、he next 15 minutes. When the time is up, I move on to the next task. That way, at night I dont end up with a pile of tasks to accomplish even though I felt busy all day.”Talk to your manager“Quite often, people are working on things that are no longer a top priority, but someone forgot to tell them

16、(that theyre no longer important). There are usually clear priorities in the managers head; he or she has just not done a great job communicating those with the employee,” says Holly Green, CEO of The Human Factor.Greens suggestion unfolds in this manner: “If you find yourself confronted with too ma

17、ny responsibilities, sit down, note the significant things you are in charge of, and go to your manager to have a conversation to discuss priorities, trade-offs, time commitments and interdependencies required to do each thing well, and then ask what you should stop working on or work on less so you

In order t

22、o better assess your workload, Davidson suggests asking yourself the following questions before agreeing to undertake new responsibilities: Is the task aligned (使一致) with your priorities and goals; Are you likely to be as prone to saying yes to such a request tomorrow or next week; What else could y
