What this is

Business Productivity Skills is a self-paced course for professionals who want to get more meaningful work done with less stress. Eight lessons cover how to define productive work, prioritize effectively, plan weeks and days, take control of email and messaging, run better meetings, use spreadsheets, documents and automation tools efficiently, document and improve repeatable processes, and collaborate across teams while protecting your focus and energy.

It does not promise a specific productivity gain and is not a software tutorial. It gives you practical habits for prioritizing, planning and reducing busywork that you adapt to your own role.

What you will be able to do

  • Prioritize work using clear criteria rather than urgency alone
  • Plan weeks and days around your most important outcomes
  • Reduce time lost to email, messaging and unproductive meetings
  • Use digital tools, templates and simple automation to remove repetitive work
  • Document and improve recurring processes and collaborate efficiently
