Our latest 5-part series is all about Managing a Continuous Workload, where we explore strategies for handling a busy workload that never seems to have a lull. This first episode is all about prioritising workload and communicating clearly to people so expectations - if not matched, are at least managed well. We share our CLAWS tool to decide who and how to update people, and the STROKE checklist for absolute clarity throughout a task or project. We demo an example of how to say no, and our number one top tip for handling even the most trickiest of stakeholders. And it involves paws.
A good listen for those who are finding workload volumes a challenge at the moment, or want to support others with practical ideas to convert problems in to solutions.
