In this blog, Gemma looks at the run up to Christmas for school leaders, and why time management tips only go so far.
The weeks before the break pull school leaders in every direction at once, with end-of-term events, governors’ meetings, tired staff and plans at home all asking for the same hours.
It begins with a question from a supervision client: how do you manage your time over Christmas and still enjoy it with your family? Reading Oliver Burkeman’s Four Thousand Weeks at the same time, Gemma found the more useful question was what you choose to give your attention to.
She then shares six practical ideas for planning the weeks ahead, from deciding what you’re keeping to setting a reminder to log off, plus a few tools she uses herself.
1. What are you not willing to say no to?
2. Put you in the diary
3. Make a realistic list of priorities
4. Pomodoro it
5. Use body doubling to get things done
6. Set a reminder to log off
