In this episode, I share my thoughts around time management.
Starting from its definition, moving on why it matters in our roles (the thesis is, as always, that it helps developing the trust legal advisor role), and actual tools one can consider to improve time management skills, starting from prioritization, passing through time blocking, to-do lists (one of my favorite tools), taking breaks, learn to say no (but different) and the 80/20 rule (with a twist).

In this episode, I share my experience with firefighting, from what that is to the best skill I picked up during the years to manage these circumstances (and more!) and my experience with mental health and why it is a priority to me now (and I wished someone spoke to me about this topic earlier in my career).

In today’s episode, I want to talk about productivity in legal and compliance departments. Understanding productivity and what it can bring to a department is important to bring the team to a new level of efficiency. We start with the definition of productivity, understanding how legal and compliance teams can harness the value of it and then go through a case study to share what thing and topics I look at to introduce and use productivity as a tool for enhancing performance.

The book I talk about is Atomic Habits by James Clear (https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/40121378-atomic-habits?from_search=true&from_srp=true&qid=73WRWAolum&rank=1)

A few Youtube channels to consider: Ali Abdaal and Mariana Vieira (who is also a lawyer and might have more interesting insights for our roles).
