With phone calls, respond to them one call at a time, where you can delegate help to answer on your behalf. Break down tasks into smaller bits, and set deadlines to fish each one. For emails respond to them from the first one to the last order, carefully assessing the urgency and possible deadlines. Then where possible, respond immediately and schedule responses.

Assess each task's importance by considering factors such as deadlines, potential consequences for delays, and the impact on overall business objectives. Set realistic expectations with colleagues and clients by providing estimated response times and outlining your workflow, helping to manage their expectations and reduce unnecessary pressure. Maintain clear communication by updating stakeholders on your progress, discussing any changes to priorities, and promptly addressing urgent concerns to ensure everyone is aligned and understands the reasoning behind your prioritization decisions.

When I have a lot of tasks to juggle, I prioritise them based on two main factors: deadlines and impact. First, I make sure to tackle tasks with the closest deadlines. It's like a countdown clock—the closer the deadline, the more urgency I feel. This helps me stay organised and avoid last-minute stress. Second, I consider how each task contributes to my overall goals. If a task is directly related to something important, I'll prioritise it even if the deadline isn't as pressing. It's like building a house, some bricks are more important than others. By focusing on tasks that have a significant impact, I'm ensuring that my efforts are aligned with my vision.

When you're juggling urgent emails, phone calls, and multiple tasks, deciding what takes priority can be challenging, but clear communication and proper understanding of the tasks together with the use of the Eisenhower Matrix to categorize tasks and staying focused on what is urgent and important will help calm the workstorm. 1. Urgent and Important: These tasks require immediate attention. Handle these first. 2. Not Urgent but Important: Plan these tasks and allocate dedicated time to address them. 3.Urgent but Not Important: Delegate these tasks if possible. 4.Not Urgent and Not Important: These tasks can be postponed. They don’t contribute significantly to your objectives.
