A Quest for Balance Teaching, Research, Committee Work….how does one do it all?

What/Who wastes your time?  Name all that apply.

Today’s Top Five  Management by crisis  Inadequate Planning  Inability to say NO  Poor Communication  Poorly run meetings

New Challenges  The world gone virtual  Mania  The Untamed Telephone  Incomplete information and the paper chase

Distractions  Trivial Distractions  Undue Expectations  Urgency Trumping Validity

Messages you send…  The only good time to handle this is now  Being congenial (right now) is more important than completing a priority task  This is my last chance to be congenial  This may be “that meaningful issue” I was born to solve..  I dread being left out of the loop. AND  FEEL FREE TO INTERRUPT ME WHENEVER YOU LIKE

Procrastination-how it takes hold  “I have plenty of time”  “I don’t want to think about it now”  “ I work best under pressure”  “I’ve earned a break”

How do you protect your time?  For your research….. For yourself….

What Works  Keep intruders out of your workspace  Keeping interruptions short  Managing interruptions from colleagues  Keeping student incursions at bay  Delegating the responsibility  Rebooking discussions  Scheduling time offline/letting wait

If your plate is too full…  Remove it from your plate  Give it to someone else to do  Save it until you finish everything else.  Set time aside to PLAN your schedule/project so you can begin working on it and cutting it down to size.  Create a time/action order of what needs to be done, and when.

Finding Balance in teaching  Be transparent in your teaching.  Make sure students KNOW your expectations.  Make sure that the your teaching goals are clear.  Make sure assignments match your goals.  Use rubrics and technology to avoid repetition- (prevents both carpal tunnel and frustration)  Try tying your research directly TO your teaching  Make everything you do, work twice for you.  Make sure you’re not doing more work than your students.

One monthOne year 5 years Professional Personal

Making lists: Life at the university  Today I told them that to be in the academy meant that they would always be behind, never be able to read everything that they should, never able to keep up with the new books in their specializations, never able to stop working. (Pelias, 2004: 140).

What will never appear on your tombstone  “Wish I’d served on another committee…”

Sources  With help from  The Time Trap-Alex MacKenzie and Pat Nickerson American Management Association,  Time Management for System Administrators, Thomas A. Limoncelli. O’Reilly Media,  Successful Time Management for Dummies. Dirk Zeller. Wiley Publishing 2009
