Happy Thanksgiving
Cindy

Priority Management with Outlook
 

Research indicates many people have dozens, HUNDREDS or even THOUSANDS of emails in their Inbox!

  • Some of those emails are critical for follow up resulting in the ‘Inbox’ becoming one of several to-do lists.
  • Some of those emails contain valuable information that needs to be kept.  In effect the Inbox is used as a filing cabinet.
  • Some of those emails can be deleted.
  • After having read some of the emails several times, many people still cannot decide what if, anything needs to be done, but they decide to keep it – “just in case.”  Living in the Inbox as opposed to visiting it wastes time.

  • Has an abrasive interpersonal management style

  • Has sometimes been referred to as ‘a bully’
 
 
Lumina
 
Lumina Leader - Many businesses today are experts in management and very good at responding to the 24/7 stock valuation culture.

Lumina Team – Every individual within a team has a personal identity yet the group, as a whole, often takes on certain personality traits of its own. Lumina Team investigates the team’s own perspective of their character as well as how other people view their team, which allows them to co‐create greater team awareness and understanding. Improved team relationships ultimately culminate in improved overall performance.
