Email Management Training Online to get control of your Inbox
Our Email Management Training online is designed to help people get control of their MS Outlook email Inbox and greatly reduce their stress in the process. We show people how set up their Microsoft Outlook Inbox in such a way that emails are never inadvertently lost or forgotten.
Email is a great servant, but very a poor master. Many people basically use their Inbox as their To Do List and this ultimately results in poor email productivity. They will open an email, read it and then mark it as unread in order to come back to it later. They are then forced to constantly scan their Inbox looking for unread emails that they have not yet responded to. Some people will even forward old emails to themselves in order to bring emails back to the top of their Inbox!
Clearly this double handling of emails wastes a lot of time and is not very reliable!
In this program, you will learn to use many of the little-known the features of Microsoft Outlook that can save you valuable time and dramatically boost your productivity with email.
