A recent survey of 9,615 global knowledge workers found that an average of 3.6 hours were lost per week to unnecessary meetings and 62% of the workday was lost to repetitive, mundane tasks. In fact, research suggests that this approach leads to people spending a lot of time focusing on unimportant and meaningless activities. And although this may appear to be the logical approach, it’s actually not the most effective way to prioritise. Most people automatically prioritise these responsibilities based on urgency. There are meetings to show up to, reports to deliver, emails to read, people to check in with, and the list goes on.
We all have various responsibilities and commitments - both at work and at home.
