A Conference Call Can Be Your Best Weapon Against A Ticking Clock
A deadline for a major client is looming over your shoulder. With every tick tock from the clock you feel the hot breath of the deadline going further down your back. Stress overcomes reasonable thinking and you go blank on where the completion of the project actually stands.
Relax.
Take a deep breath.
Schedule a conference call with the team.
Get everyone together and find out how everyone is doing with their assigned tasks. Are they on schedule? Has their finished project been reviewed and approved for submission? Who needs help bringing their portion to completion?
Conference calls are a great tool for building teamwork and unifying staff. Re-delegating loose ends to wrap up the final touches happens effortlessly as everyone pulls together for the same cause.
You will begin to notice that hot breath gradually backing away as you take control and start to feel a little better about the whole situation.
By the conclusion of the conference call, your secret weapon, the clock will be subdued into submission once again.
