ASTD Nebraska presents:
Working with Distractions
Presenter: James Dan Newman
_________________________________________________
Have you ever wondered if there is a better way to work in a distracted environment?
What are some of the strategies to directly benefit you working more efficiently and with fewer errors?
***BREAKING NEWS***
Oh how this phrase can stop us in our tracks even when we have more important things to do!
Distractions are everywhere and in all facets of life which has led to a very chaotic life and work environment. We need the tools to know how to stay productive no matter what is going on around us.
In less than two (2) hours James Dan Newman will provide a short lecture on distractions, engage you in a multitasking exercise to get your complete buy-in to the topic, and then invite you to participate in scenarios where you get to build electronic circuits while being subjected to three different types of distractions.
Your performance will be tested in a fun and interactive way, and you will learn from each other practical tools used to be more successful in demanding environments.
