“The Eisenhower Matrix is a task management tool that helps you organize and prioritize tasks by urgency and importance”
Effective Leaders focus on spending their time on the work in Quadrant 2. This is about planning, thinking and prevention.
What does that mean?
Quadrant 1 = Urgent, Important work = Crises, firefighting
Quadrant 2 = Not Urgent, Important work = Preventative, planning, proactive work
Quadrant 3 = Not Important, Urgent work = Interruptions, pressing matters
Quadrant 4 = Not Important, Not Urgent work = time wasting, busy work
Solving problems is overrated.
Preventing problems is underrated.
Be in the business of prevention.
All the best
