Well it’s time to change it up and post a blog article that is in no way Accpac specific.   That being said I think this subject matter is something we can all relate to….who here would like to improve their ‘time management skills’?

  

I would...for sure and possibly some of you folks out there might have some interest so I would like to share some details from a seminar I attended at Sage Summit last week presented by Chris DeVany, the founder and president of *[Pinnacle Performance Improvement Worldwide](http://www.ppiw.com),*a firm which focuses on management and organization development. 

 Chris did a great job presenting the material and I although I do not have a recording of the event I do have his Powerpoint from the presentation that details how to mange your day more effectively by learning how to better understand ‘urgency’ V’s ‘importance’ in relation to tasks.

In the [Powerpoint Presentation](https://www.equationtech.us/Default.aspx?app=LeadgenDownload&shortpath=docs%2fSage+Working+Smart.ppt) Chris will show you how to work even smarter by following the key steps detailed below.

- Plan the day
- Choose Top 3 Priorities
- Review the day mid-day
- Review the day at end of day
- Plan for tomorrow before leaving
