Course Description

Most of us can think of really good reasons to get our work done faster. Maybe we want todo more tasks and earn more money, or maybe we wantmore free time. Either way, if you would like to improve your productivity by streamlining your work day, this course is for you!

Packed with useful tips and strategies for maximizing your time and minimizing your effort, this course is a must-have for anyone who wants to increase productivity and get through their work faster.

The content for this course comes from trainings I've taken on time management (in the legal field, where time is literally money since attorneys bill by the hour) in addition to strategies I've discovered for myself along the way to maximize my production while minimizing my efforts. Together, this course is a concise powerhouse of useful tips to help you strategize your work day and your working life for optimal productivity. The tips are simple and easy to employ, and strategies are provided to help you incorporate the ones that may be more difficult for you such as putting an end to procrastination! The course is short because it doesn't need to be any longer than it is. I'm interested in saving your time and mine, and in creating such a short, concise course I'm working smarter, not harder, and allowing you to also work smarter, not harder, by not wasting your time drawing it out any longer than it needs to be. In just 30 minutes, you'll discover a range of tips and strategies that will help optimize your productivity, freeing you up for more earning capacity or more play time, or both!

I've been able to develop extremely productive strategies that have enabled me to both take on more work and increase my earnings, as well as increase my free time. When you are super productive with your time and energies, you truly can have it all! This course provides you with the insights that will help you maximize your productivity by showing you how to use your time wisely and well.

The small investmentyou will make in this course will pay off for you for years to come. You'll be able to take on more tasks than your colleagues, which will impress the bosses, and you'll be able to have more free time to enjoy. In short, you have nothing to lose from this course! But, so much to gain.

Instructor Details

Michele Poff, PhD

Hi! I'm Dr. Michele Poff. I have a PhD in Communication (University of Washington, Seattle), an MA in Applied Linguistics, and a BA in English (University of California, Berkeley). I've taught university courses in communication and English language for 14 years.
I'm so pleased to have discovered Udemy! This platform allows me to fulfill a lifelong dream of mine, which is to bring the knowledge I've acquired in so many years of university education to people outside of my university courses. Now thanks to Udemy, I can help all kinds of people all over the world who want to improve their lives.
You can be confident that all of my courses come from solid science or unique personal experience, and you will know the difference. For example, I wouldn't dare create a course on assertiveness based on personal experience. Instead, as a PhD, you can be confident that the material I bring to you is grounded in solid science, and is the result of years of scientific research. These are not university courses of course, as they are a lot shorter and a lot simpler here. But I do take pride in creating university-quality courses for my global e-learning students. I always do a lot of homework to bring to you the very best courses I can, that are based in solid research and fully backed by science. This is a really important feature that separates my courses from most of the other courses in this learning space. Everyone has a perspective, and sometimes those perspectives are insight

Yes. Multi-tasking is not a good think. Staying focused and disciplined are fundamental to success.

One of the best online courses I've taken. Concise and very informative. This will help you streamline your processes at work or even your personal life. Another reason to look forward to after quarantine is the exercises given in this course.

its good.

By Thomas Bink on 4/10/2020

Ik raad deze cursus wel aan, alleen vind ik het jammer dat het telkens kleine video's zijn van 15sec. Het was misschien beter geweest als het 3 langeren video's waren.

By Temitope Adewunmi on 4/6/2020

Yes it was. I got practical tips on how to be productive, and i'm starting to use them.
