Leadership Multi-Tasking: What Is It Really?

June 28, 2018

I asked a classroom of leaders what it took to keep up with the demands of leadership.

One leader said, “Multi-tasking.” She explained further, “It means that you can efficiently switch back and forth between various tasks without losing your intention or focus; toggling between tasks.”

This is a great definition of multi-tasking. Leaders often handle many different demands of the workplace, including from team members and customers. 

Self-reflection question: How am I doing at toggling between tasks? How can I improve my ability to do this?

1.      Before leaving a task, decide to leave it and notice where you left off. Don’t let it be a reaction, but a decision.

2.      Keep what you are working on easily accessible; either on your desk or open on your computer.

3.      During the brief time you are doing each task, give it your full attention. Whether it is listening to a team member or completing a report, let it be the only thing on your mind.
