MY TOP 5 TIPS FOR MANAGING DEADLINES!

Mar 2020   |   Written By Lisa Mackerness

  1. Be specific with deadlines. ‘As soon as possible’ or ‘urgent’ is NOT a deadline. You can only prioritise effectively with dates.
  2. Be realistic when accepting deadlines. ‘First thing tomorrow morning’ is probably not an option. Be confident to provide a deadline that is feasible.
  3. Understand the reason for the deadline and the consequences of missing it.
  4. Turn off your mobile and email alerts when you need to concentrate.
  5. Don’t leave it to the last minute, start the work as soon as possible!

She has proven herself to be able to take responsibility for all aspects of an event far above any other VA I have come across. She is able to work with our internal staff as well as liaise and indeed negotiate with third parties. I wold challenge anyone to come up with a better organiser.”
