The six modules, in the recommended order

  1. Step 1

    Always overwhelmed? The problem isn’t time

  2. Step 2

    Big rocks first: Make room for what really matters

    Set aside time first for what really matters, each week and as a team, before demands fill up the calendar.

  3. Step 3

    Daily priorities: Protect what matters, align with your team

    Choose your priorities each day with proven techniques, and align them with those of the colleagues you depend on.

  4. Step 4

    Protect your focus: Take control of email and interruptions

    Take back control of email and interruptions: decide in advance when and by what you let yourself be interrupted.

  5. Step 5

    Easing mental overload: Energy follows attention

    Understand what really drains attention, and learn to preserve your physical, mental, and emotional energy.

  6. Step 6

    Realistic planning: A schedule that survives the week

    Build a realistic schedule that leaves room for the unexpected and takes dependencies between colleagues into account.
