The PM Survival Guide: How to Own Your Calendar (Before It Owns You)

Описание: Time is the only resource you can’t manufacture, yet it’s usually the first one squandered. For most project managers, the day isn’t a planned itinerary—it’s a series of ambushes. Between the "quick questions" that take thirty minutes and the relentless ping of email threads, you aren't leading your team; you’re just reacting to the loudest noise.

Time-blocking changes that.

By reclaiming your calendar, you move from constant fragmentation to high-impact focus. This isn't just another productivity hack; it is a tactical defense system against context switching and mental clutter.

Why It Works
📌Deep Work: Reserves your best energy for high-priority deliverables.
📌Cognitive Ease: Eliminates the "switching cost" that drains your mental battery.
📌Boundaries: Transforms your schedule from an open invitation into a professional roadmap.

Implementing this simple shift might be the most significant upgrade to your leadership style this year. Stop managing the clock and start mastering your output.
