Laura Stack


_______________________________________________________________________________


About the book

Employees know they are lucky enough to have a job in this economy and are working longer hours just to stay employed. Yet studies have repeatedly shown that long workweeks result in a decrease in productivity.

For over 20 years, Laura Stack has been teaching professionals how to transform their ever-expanding to-do lists into a functional, workable system. What To Do When There's Too Much To Do teaches you how to actually do less and achieve more; Stack describes her comprehensive approach that organises life around the tasks that really matter, and shows it's okay to let go of the ones that don't.

Stack details her step-by-step strategy that has transformed the lives of her clients by saving them 90 minutes a day, including how to:
  • Determine what to do and schedule time to do it
  • Track down time wasters
  • Learn to say no and make it stick
  • Rescue your time from meetings
  • Handle external and internal distractions
  • Reduce inefficiencies and break bottlenecks
  • Manage your personal energy and make yourself happier
