SUMMARY:Learning and Development Roundtable: Easy\, peasy tech tools to save your sanity in work and at home
DESCRIPTION:  \nDaily life can often be a massive challenge.  From overloaded to-do lists to crunched time\, and from feeling like we’re being pulled in every direction to the dizzyingly fast pace of life – it’s enough to make even the most patient person have a meltdown (or multiple meltdowns). \nAdded to this is the pressure of using technology\, which seems to change faster than you can say ‘Make it stop!’  So-called helpful tech tools can be a huge time suck. Who hasn’t disappeared down the rabbit hole of YouTube videos\, Pinterest boards\, and/or TikTok videos only to emerge sleepy-eyed and aghast at the hours that have mysteriously evaporated? \nAdd the pressures of daily life to the pressure that tech causes and the incredibly\, extraordinarily\, hair-raisingly frustrating situations that ensue is enough to cause a colourful array of curse words to fly out of your mouth all the while you’re restraining yourself from throwing your computer out the window.  \nYou’re not alone.  Eighty percent of people experience at least one technology-related frustration every day\, with 30%  of folks experiencing five or more tech frustrations daily.  That’s a whole lot of frustration and a whole lot of wasted time. \nFrom incessant\, distracting notifications and not being able to collaborate or find your digital resources\, there’s a well-documented\, litany of very justifiable complaints. \nBut it doesn’t have to be that way. \nImagine for a moment\, if you could easily and effortlessly find your digital resources\, and keep track of your to-do’s without requiring a Ph.D.\, in Tech.  Imagine you could use some Simple and Easy (yes\, with a capital S and E) tools to reduce your overwhelm\, and amp up your ease and efficiency. \nSound like a pipe dream?  I assure you it’s not.  \nJoin me for a fun\, interactive workshop where I’ll introduce you to a simple\, effective process for identifying your specific pain points\, and easy-peasy tech tools that ease those very pains. \nIn this free workshop on May 25th with me\, Lee-Anne Ragan you’ll:\n\nLearn how to identify and prioritize your pain points in life and in work by rewriting Einstein’s theory of relativity\nCreate your very own tech map – both your current map and where you’d like to journey to\, using an editable worksheet template\nDiscover my four-point plan for minimizing pain and ensuring your tech success\nHave fun exploring a bunch of simple\, easy tools to show you that tech tools really can bring you ease and efficiency whether your pain points are related to managing information\, collaborating\, saving time/being more productive\, researching\, managing your email\, and/or professional development.\nPush the opportunities even more with tech tools just for fun\, for being of service\, and for mental health/work-life balance.\nCome away feeling inspired\, hopeful and with a workbook full of strategies and tools for you to implement\nCount the workshop towards your annual UN-Mandated training (If you’re a UN staff)   \n\nRSVP using this link by May 23rd.
