Learn To Tame Your Work Intake Beast!
Work Intake Summer Camp is in session! Jeremy Willets and I are celebrating summer in the northern hemisphere with a summer camp. We’ll look at the primary causes of work intake problems… and how to solve them! Join us for an entertaining and informative LinkedIn Live event. The next weekly session begins at 11:30 EDT on July 3rd (LinkedIn).
Each session will:
- Define one work intake problem per session,
- Identify how to recognize the problem,
- Offer a pragmatic approach to tackling the issue, and
- At least one scary story of work entry gone wrong (this is summer camp)
We would like you to register at our Maven page https://bit.ly/3HEsKK7 so we can remind you when the session goes live. If you register we also have a Work Intake Problem Worksheet that we use in our workshops that we will email. However, if you’d rather not register on Maven you can set a reminder on LinkedIn (Session 3). In either case, we will announce when the sessions go live on LinkedIn.
Replay Week: Need Outstrips Demand
Feel free to share the invitation with others. Remind everyone to use sunscreen!
