How to Ensure You & Your Employees Are Working Smarter

We are all feeling new pressures regarding what we need to get done! The boundaries between our work lives and our private or home lives have been completely blurred through the Covid pandemic. In our work situations we may be adjusting to long-term working from home, a return to full-time workplace-based activity, or most likely a hybrid of the two. We could all use some help when it comes to smarter approaches.

How To Work Smarter (Not Harder)

It’s rarely the case that anyone teaches us the best ways to approach our work. But we develop our own ways of doing things & that tends to work ok. But just about everyone complains about having a lack of time and an endless ‘to do’ list. And part of the problem is we are usually too busy to stop to evaluate how we could be doing things better!
