Deciding How to Decide – The Eisenhower Matrix

Contractors have long to do lists every day and week when they go to work. Then the emails and phone calls come in, and carefully conceived plans get tossed out the window. How do busy executives manage their priorities? It would be really cool if there was a system, a tool to help busy contractors determine what to do first, second, etc.

Good news! There is! Dwight Eisenhower ran the Allied war effort in WWII and became president of the United States; you might say he was a fairly busy guy who had to deal with constantly shifting landscapes, imperfect information, and a multitude of things constantly vying for his attention – just like you except more so! He developed a tool (popularized in the modern business world by Stephen Covey) to help him decide how to decide.

Please watch this week as Wayne explains The Eisenhower Matrix and how you and your team can use it.
