Hello ,
In a few weeks and perhaps even days many of you are likely to be heading off on holiday.
Avoid the run up to your Summer break becoming a source of stress as you work long hours with frantic activity as you try and fit everything in to the dwindling time
available?
Plan ahead - what needs to be done over the next few weeks? When are you going to do it? Don't leave things to the last minute.
Scheduling - Keep the week before your holiday as free as possible. Avoid too many meetings or commitments in this week, you may not have time for follow-ups and actions.
Prioritise - do the 'most important' things before you
leave. What's the minimum needed to keep things going? Focus on the right things. Set time limits on tasks, get more done with few distractions.
Delegate - what happens to your workload while you're away? Who's going to answer calls, respond to emails or look after your clients, customers and projects? Handover important tasks and projects in good time.
Communicate - let key people know
when you're going to be away and for how long - clients, customers, your colleagues. Leave plenty of time if you need something from them before you go and provide alternate contacts while you're away.
Most important of all ... relax, recharge and enjoy the break.
