Time management

Over the past two decades as a Personal Assistant to directors, teams, and individuals, I’ve learned that one of the most valuable things I can do is help improve time management.

Our inboxes often overflow with meeting requests, spam, and newsletters - filtering them can easily take hours. Combine that with organising client meetings, handling operational tasks, and managing daily logistics, and it's easy to feel overwhelmed. This can make us lose sight of the bigger picture and cause our long-term goals to be forgotten.

In the coming months, I’ll share case studies of successful individuals who became exhausted and overwhelmed by the mundane, repetitive tasks that modern work demands. You’ll notice a common theme: most people struggle to effectively manage their time.

The key to improving time management isn't just about organising your schedule. It’s about having the right support in place. That’s where I come in. My administrative support ensures your time is spent efficiently, so you can focus on high-priority activities and strategic thinking.

Some of the tasks I can help with include:

Prioritisation and organisation

By managing your calendar, I ensure that only the most important meetings and tasks are highlighted, while less pressing items are scheduled for later. Your diary should never be a free-for-all. There are simple yet effective ways we can ensure you’re always working productively - and still get a lunch break.

Handling routine tasks

Allowing me to filter your emails, book appointments, and organise travel will free up time for you to focus on what matters most.

Time zone management

Coordinating across multiple time zones can be a logistical nightmare. A small error in a calendar entry can have big consequences. I handle these complexities, ensuring meetings and deadlines are kept on track.

Buffering distractions

Entrepreneurs and business owners are often interrupted by non-essential requests, draining time and energy. My gatekeeping skills ensure distractions are filtered out, so your time is dedicated to what’s truly important.

Long-term planning support

By assisting with project timelines, milestones, and follow-ups, I help align short-term actions with long-term goals, leading to better planning and execution.

There are many processes we can implement to ensure you’re not wasting precious time, giving you more hours to focus on strategic thinking, innovation, and high-level decision-making—ultimately boosting both productivity and success.
