The Impact/Effort Matrix

So... I Imagine that most of you started your day by creating or revisiting your ‘to/do’ list?

If you haven’t met before... please welcome the ‘IMPACT EFFORT MATRIX’ - a productivity and prioritisation tool to help identify which tasks result in quick wins and which will have minimal impact .

Grab those post-it’s now and have a go! Write the jobs from today’s to-do list on individual sticky’s and place them on the matrix.

What do you notice? A list full of low-effort/ high impact tasks or an abundance of thankless jobs?

How do you think this impacts on your time, your motivation and your long-term goals?

Let me know if you had a go and if taking this approach changed your priorities this week?
