TAKE BACK YOUR CALENDAR: Proven Scheduling Strategies

You’re invited to join me, Cyndi Trevisiol, founder of www.HelpfulColleague.com, for a free, specific and detailed 45-minute training on taking control of your calendar.

LinkedIn Live Event Link: https://www.linkedin.com/events/takebackyourcalendar-provensche7112534269935177729/theater/

Over time without intervention it is natural for our calendars to become full of recurring meetings and activities that leave us little time to complete our essential work. This can lead to reduced productivity, multi-tasking during meetings, reduced team engagement for managers, missing critical information, and burnout.

If you’re feeling the stress of time management heading into fall and the upcoming busy holiday season, join me and TAKE BACK YOUR CALENDAR before things get any further out of control.

In this presentation I will cover:
□ Intro to The Helpful Colleague
□ Story about Lean Implementation in a Biotech Manufacturing environment that drove me to make changes and actively manage my calendar
□ Intro to the process I developed that I’ll be sharing with you:
□ Inventory of Meetings
□ Inventory of Essential Tasks
□ What can be Pruned?
□ Management Check-In
□ Calendar Blocking Done Right
□ Maintenance
□ Questions

If you enjoy the session and want to apply the training to your business but aren’t sure where to start, feel free to reach out and book an initial coaching appointment with me.

I have some availability in October and there is no pressure to purchase services during our initial 20-minute session.

Introduction to Trello for Operations Management

You’re invited to join me, Cyndi Trevisiol, founder of www.HelpfulColleague.com, for our first LinkedIn Live Event: a free 1-hour training on using Trello for Operations Management.

LinkedIn Live Event Link: https://www.linkedin.com/events/introductiontotrelloforoperatio7105054724025970688/theater/ 

Trello is primarily marketed and used for project management, but I have used it extensively for operations management in manufacturing and quality control due to ERP gaps. No matter your current ERP situation or business size, Trello can be a fast, simple solution for getting complete visibility of operational status.

In this presentation I will cover:

□ Intro to The Helpful Colleague

□ Managing Operations vs. Projects

□ Trello interface basics

□ Two example process maps and their corresponding Trello boards

□ Exporting data for reports

□ Example of integrated report using ERP and Trello data

□ Questions

 

I’ll post links to the example Trello boards in the LinkedIn Live chat for you to explore independently while I am presenting. I’ll also record the event and post on YouTube afterward.

 

If you enjoy the session and want to apply the training to your business but aren’t sure where to start, feel free to reach out and book an initial coaching appointment with me. I currently have availability and there is no charge or pressure to purchase services during our initial 20-minute session, although I will share my rates as part of our introduction.
