Suman is a Manager of an International Testing Lab. She is responsible for managing a team of scientists and technicians, ensuring that all lab testing is completed accurately and efficiently, and delivering high-quality results to clients.
Now she need a proper guidelines to maintain her activities, as per recent training & observation she should follow the 80/20 rule to her work, so that Suman could analyzes her task list and determines that overseeing lab testing and quality control are the most important tasks as they contribute the most to the lab's reputation and client satisfaction.
She would able to prioritizes these tasks and spends the first few hours of her workday on them when she has the most energy and focus.
Now considering Suman will take my suggestion and lets see what could be possibilities as outcome.
Here Suman also identifies that administrative tasks such as scheduling and coordinating meetings, reviewing reports and handling paperwork, while necessary, do not contribute significantly to the lab's primary goals. She delegates these tasks to her administrative assistant, who has the necessary skills and expertise to handle them efficiently.
To optimize her use of time, Suman sets boundaries by limiting interruptions and avoiding distractions. She makes it clear to her team that she is available during specific hours of the day and outside of those hours, they should contact her only for emergencies. She uses her breaks to step away from her work and re-energize herself.
By applying the 80/20 rule, Suman is able to prioritize and focus on the most important tasks that contribute the most to the lab's goals. She eliminates or delegates low-value tasks, uses her time wisely, and periodically reviews and adjusts her time management strategies to continuously improve her productivity and efficiency.
As a result, the lab runs more smoothly, and Suman is able to deliver high-quality results to clients, ultimately contributing to the success of the lab and its growth.
There are several other rules or examples could be followed but I guess following 80/20 would be effective.
Thank you for your time.
