Time for Self-reflection

Time for self-reflection

White space also includes the reconciliation of ideas and events in past meetings. I always make sure to wrap up my sessions five minutes earlier than the agreed finishing time. The whole calendar of an average manager is filled with meetings and deadlines.

Managers must participate in these meetings and meet the deadlines. So, the one place we can find time for self-reflection and reconciliation of our thoughts is the space in between.

I utilize the five minutes left after meetings for reflections. I sit back to process and ruminate on decisions agreed upon and take the next course of action.

Benefits
