Email Management Strategies online course

Description

Email and instant messaging constantly disrupt thinking, creating streams of distraction that hinder focus on important tasks. This course aims to change your email management strategies, focusing on reducing email’s dominance in your workflow. You will analyse and modify your email workflow and habits, learning to view email as an input to your work, not the core of it. The course guides you to use email more effectively, putting you in control rather than letting your inbox dictate your day.

Additionally, this course introduces techniques to prioritize incoming emails and effectively batch-process them, ensuring timely responses without compromising your workflow. You’ll learn to set boundaries for email usage, incorporating tools and filters to manage your inbox efficiently. The course also covers how to craft clear and concise emails to enhance communication efficiency. By the end of the course, you will have mastered email management strategies in a way that supports, rather than impedes, your productivity and mental clarity in your academic and professional endeavours.

The course offers strategies to establish less distracting email routines, including resources for more efficient and less stressful email communication. It works best in combination with courses on scheduling and information management. Direct interaction with the teacher and engagement with other participants are available in every lesson.
