Learn actionable steps to plan and prepare for time out of the office so you can truly enjoy your time away.
Time away from the office is vital to establish a work-life balance and provide a break from day-to-day routines. We know it's important and valuable -- yet it can prove difficult to step away when you know business marches on in your absence and an avalanche of work will likely await you upon your return. A common lament is, 'It's a LOT of work to take a vacation.' If you've ever felt that way, you'll want to join us for this presentation. We'll be sharing actionable steps to plan and prepare for time out of the office so you can truly enjoy your time away and know that you've covered your bases. You'll learn time management strategies that address everything from scheduling your vacation until you're back in the office. Evaluating your current projects and strategizing for your time away minimizes the disorganization and chaos that comes when you don't have a plan. This topic will prove beneficial for employees throughout your organization as it helps step you through the timeline to be prepared to leave for vacation as well as return and get back to work without getting overwhelmed.
