If you have been working for any length of time, you will agree with me that we are being required to do more in less time. And leaders and managers are particularly susceptible to this due to the huge amount of additional information they have access to and the more compressed time frames to make decisions. Consequently leaders are looking for ways to do more with less.
A recent article by Scott Stein for the Governance Institute of Australia entitled ‘How Leaders Can Learn to do More with Less’ (read it here) tackles this issue head on and provides some excellent strategies to achieve this. I am not going to go into the details, but the 5 strategies are:
- Limit distractions that steal your attention
- Leverage time by hacking your approach to email
- Identify the activities you shouldn’t be doing
- Boost impact by delegating to your people
- Use the right type of team meeting to enable people to do more.
I would encourage you to read the full article to see how these 5 strategies can actually help you achieve more. And the Avondale Business School is here to help you also. Just contact Warrick Long on 02 4980 2168 or [email protected] to find out how we can add value to your business.
