Masterclass: Productivity hacks for portfolio professionals
Build better habits with our focused course in effectiveness
Ready to overcome your productivity pitfalls?
As portfolio professionals, we’re in control of our own time – and that can be a tricky game. Projects pile up and life gets in the way. So how do you ensure that you’re being as productive as you possibly can? Procrastination creeps over all of us, but knowing how to value your time, optimise your processes and recognise common mistakes will do wonders for your workload.
- Two-part intensive course broken into two 90-minute module sessions on the 2nd and 3rd November from 5pm-6:30pm UK time
- This masterclass is only available for Pioneer Lite members. For just £15/month, you have unlimited access to all our learning and development materials.
- Open to professionals at all levels
Learn directly from the experts
Hosted by our CEO Ben Legg, this course is designed to help you focus more, stress less and learn how to get things done.
During this Masterclass, you’ll discover how to:
- Put a precise cost on your time
- Understand the most common productivity traps
- Overcome procrastination and context switching
- Prioritise and plan
How it works:
This class is split across two evenings, with 90-minute live sessions. During your live sessions, you’ll discuss the course material with your facilitators and the wider cohort, breaking off into smaller groups to engage in practical exercises and in-depth conversation. You will be asked to complete assignments to help you further strengthen your productivity skills.
As the numbers are limited to ensure an intimate learning experience, we encourage everyone to get involved and take part in the conversation – don’t be afraid to share, ask questions and really dig deep into the topics.
