We had 50+ associates spend just one hour in Marsha Egan's
"Taming the Email Tiger" Productivity seminar. One manager
stated that the seminar was the most productive of any
training session attended in a 20 year career – that’s
powerful! Marsha helped the staff embrace the need to be
proactive rather than reactive about managing email. Instead
of looking up every time they receive a new email, they are
now doing a much more effective job of working it into their
days with the right priorities. That goes straight to the
bottom line.

because that expectation has been removed company-wide.”

email, and your life!
Hi Marsha,
Just wanted to show you a picture of my inbox, which had
1968 messages in it when I came to your session “Help I’ve
Fallen into My Inbox and I Can’t Get Out.” Thank you for
giving me my life back!!

Productivity seminars will
teach you to organize your desk so that nothing’s lost, to cut
down the office socializing, and to appoint a time-keeper so
that meetings don’t run late to improve time management. But
what about first managing your email? As today’s technology
improves, employees are going to spend more and more time
communicating virtually, and if you don’t have a air-tight
system for managing it, your email will suck you in. Take
control of your email, and take back your time with Egan’s easy
solutions to add 90 minutes to your day. She will show you how
to:
-
·
Manage your Inbox
instead of it Managing You.
-
·
Follow the 5 Step
Approach to Controlling Your Inbox
-
·
Apply the “2 Minute
Rule”
-
·
Control when you
receive your Email
