Introduction

No matter what you do, prioritizing and planning your work is key to your success, well-being and peace of mind if you do it effectively.

Whether you have to plan your tasks, orchestrate the work of your team members or simply organize your personal life, making choices informed by your goals ensures that you invest your efforts where it really counts for you. Planning ahead with clarity ensures that you find the optimal path to achieve your goals.

Indeed, we are all faced with a work overload or a to-do list that never ends. You need to choose wisely among these, because you may well be working hard without achieving your goals. All these tasks that compete with each other for your efforts and attention must be analyzed, sorted, organized and planned, because they do not all have the same impact on your accomplishments.

This course will provide you with techniques and ideas to help you manage your priorities and plan your work using the best practices in these areas.

We will begin by reviewing the basic concepts of strategic thinking. Indeed, it is essential to adopt a perspective that looks at the forest rather than the trees in order to make judicious choices and plan optimally.
