Making Sense of Work with Jean Balfour
Ep. #47 Deep Work and Focus with Jean Balfour
When do you get your best work done? There are some who argue that, in order to succeed in today's economy, we must possess the ability to produce elite level work quickly and efficiently. Others suggest that it's important to recognize when we're feeling overwhelmed and to prioritize mindful work during designated periods.
In this particular episode, Jean Balfour offers her perspective on various time management books and shares how she manages to accomplish meaningful work during her concentrated periods.
