‘Managing’ Time You’ve got 20 different tasks that ‘must’ get done today. How do you decide what to do first? Closest deadlineWhat’s costing the most Who’s shouting the loudestWhat do you like doing What’s making the most moneyWhat’s the quickest to finish What do you least like doingWhat’s the easiest What’s the hardest

Ideas Priority Grid: Important Vs Urgent B B D D A A C C

Ideas Paired Decisions Good if you have lots to do and difficult to prioritise Quicker than it looks List all ‘to dos’ Compare each one with another, eg 1 and 2, 1 and 3, 1 and 4, 1 and 5. Then 2 and 3, 2 and 4 etc. Decide which of each pair is most important. Do them in order of priority as identified by the choices See link for example:

Ideas
