E-mail Overload: How to Lighten Up Your In-box
Pam Kristan, Author, Consultant, and Seminar Leader
Do you have more than a screen full of e-mails in your in-box? How about 100, 500, 1000, or more? Have some been there for weeks, months, or longer? You’re not alone. Since e-mail is easier to send than to process, we need special techniques to move through the glut of messages. Here is how you can overcome e-mail overload:
-
Learn intuitive, sensible ways to deal with your backlog.
-
Create a tailored-to-you system to keep up with emails as they come in (for this exercise, bring printouts of 10 – 20 of your most recent emails).
-
Learn e-mail time management techniques and how to be a better email sender.
