Email is often the relentless office tyrant that drives the work activities of many people. For some reason we feel obliged to respond to emails instantly, and in so doing allow ourselves to be diverted from the normal work that we should be doing.
Email may give the illusion of efficiency because it is virtually instant and we can respond immediately to satisfy the sender’s demands. This generates high levels of stress because we lose control of our work patterns and become “cog-ware”; just parts of the email driven machine in which we work.
Do you feel that:
- Your work day is dictated by email?
- Too much of your time is spent reading and writing emails?
- You have difficulty completing the tasks which are your responsibility because you are diverted by emails?
- Are afraid of missing an important email?
If you recognise yourself then this on-line course from Claybury International is for you. It will help you to become a responsible emailer; taking control of email, reducing your stress levels and improving your effectiveness.
