Learn how to lose your “to-do” lists and focus on your most meaningful work instead.

Overview

We have partnered with Steve Riccio, one of Academic Impressions’ Success Coaches, to bring you this video course and help you take back control of your day-to-day schedule by empowering you to focus on the priorities that matter the most to you. Through a combination of self-reflection and skills-practice activities, you will transform the way you manage your time by learning how to: 

  • Identify and focus on your purpose and top priorities in order to move towards greater effectiveness  
  • Define goals that drive you toward achieving your purpose without overwhelming you 
  • Create and manage a schedule that allows you to accomplish your most important work first 
  • Protect your schedule and stay accountable to your top priorities when distractions and derailments inevitably arise 

How It Works

For 8 days, you will get daily emails Monday through Friday with bite-sized videos that you can watch in your lunchbreak each day. We will also send you activities that you can start reflecting on and complete on your own time. New cohorts start every Monday.

Integrate professional development into your daily routine and master the core concepts of time management.
