About the program

When your workload exceeds your capacity, it can lead to anxiety, stress and even burnout. Does your task list grow by the minute while your time and energy dwindle? Being busy is not a sign of productivity and success.

Ann shares her decades of experience juggling a very busy corporate life with multiple weeks a month on the road and client 24/7 expectations of availability, with her expertise in stress and health management to help you master your task list, reduce your stress and increase your productivity.

This session helps you to reduce your to-do list without sacrificing your progress, leading to a less stressful daily life and a more satisfying professional work life.

Learn how to:
• Prioritize wisely
• Assess the validity of new tasks
• Understand the art of refusal
• Stop worrying about future tasks today
