Outlook Best Practices: Scheduling

Although you don't have much say about when and how many meetings are scheduled, you do have more control over your calendar than you might think.

In this video, Renée talks to Harry about some of the things he can do to take more control over his calendar such as 1) Setting aside time each morning to review his calendar and task list; 2) Blocking out appointments for completing the work he plans to do; and 3) Schedule more time for himself to do a thorough review about what's planned for the current week and beyond and how to prioritize those things

Missed some of Harry's progress?

Some of the best practices require Outlook 2010 and a Microsoft Exchange Server account.

For all the details, see Best Practices for Outlook 2010. And, if you want to see all nine videos, visit the Office training course How Harry got organized.
