28. Build to Last Workshop: Time Management: Theme Days and Time Blocking

Are you ready to create a calendar that serves you and leads to NO MORE INTERRUPTIONS?

So many directors and owners come to me and tell me they are so overwhelmed or that they are working 12 hour days because they have too long to-do lists or because they are wearing too many hats in their school. It DOESN'T have to be that way.

Today I discussed:

1. 3 Myths of the school leaders time

2. “I always need to be available”

3. "I’m the only one who can do this job well”

4. "I use my time well - there just isn’t enough time in the day”

5. Block and Tackle method - a powerful strategy to ensure you don’t get interrupted.

6. What is the definition of an emergency?

7. Sample Theme Days - which is an organizing principle for how to show up in your day

Our biggest takeaway from today...

activities that aren't moving your school forward you need to delegate out.
