Managing Time When There Isn’t Enough of It: Executive Strategies
For many executives, time is the one resource that never stretches far enough. Endless meetings, decision fatigue, and urgent tasks often crowd out strategic thinking. The key isn’t finding more hours – it’s choosing how to best invest them.
Ruthlessly Prioritize. Start each week by identifying your top three priorities. Try to do this when you’re least distracted, otherwise you may miss the mark. Your priorities should align with your biggest responsibilities, not just your most urgent tasks. Keep in mind the 80/20 rule: focus energy on the 20% of activities that drive 80% of impact.
