The Time Gap

SUMMARY

Tech-enabled Always On Economy

Leaders spend their days in meetings, putting out fires. They usually get to the real work after the formal workday ends and the informal workday begins.

Especially true in Healthcare, where lives and safety are on the line.

Constantly reacting, multiple demands on our time, and have multiple roles to play in the workplace and within our families,

Take a step back and reflect on:

1. Awareness - thinking realistically about your time by understanding that it is limited

2. Arrangement - designing and organization goals, plans, schedules, and tasks effectively

3. Adaptation - monitoring your use of time - adjustments, interruptions, changing priorities

For the process-oriented, OKR (Objectives and Key Results) tracking can help

Another tool is understanding the nature of priorities - are they external, such as taxes or budgets, or internal, such as ‘want to’ or ‘should.’

Discuss what values are being triggered by priorities

What motivator or value does this internal language trigger?

Discuss one assessment tool to understand these values, and how they motivate us (Hogan)
