Managing Your Workload: How to Prioritize When Everything is Important

Strategic Prioritization and How to Get More Done in Less Time

Are you finding it difficult to function efficiently in today’s high-pressure work environment? 

You’re not alone. Recent AMA research suggests that an increasingly high number of people feel stressed, overwhelmed, and pulled in multiple directions. There are seemingly endless workplace demands, ever-expanding schedules, greater output requirements, and more responsibilities requiring your time and attention. 

The way to meet this challenge is to stop operating in reactive mode and move toward developing a proactive mindset.
