Improving Productivity Using OneNote
OneNote will help you keep track of different types of information, such as researching products you need to buy, storing info on items you already bought, web sites you need to spend time on, articles you need to read, meeting notes you need to keep and refer to, and of course, images and audio for any of this. It's flexible enough to let you work using the GTD methodology in the way you want. However, do you know how to turn OneNote into the ultimate tool and get things done?
OneNote eliminates sticky notes, replaces paper notepads, and even streamlines the organizing of projects, research, and tasks in Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or Outlook. If you want to save time planning, organizing, and searching for information, you won’t find a more useful tool than OneNote.
If you want to know how to use it properly, register for this pre-recorded webinar, presented by our expert Microsoft Office trainer, for a comprehensive understanding of OneNote that will take you from newbie to expert in just 60 minutes. Our expert will show you how to get more efficient, effective, and creative as she walks you through the ins and outs of OneNote, and demonstrates how it integrates seamlessly with Microsoft Outlook, Word, PowerPoint, and YouTube. You will learn how to set up Notebooks for personal and professional tasks, bring together files from Word, PowerPoint, Outlook, and the web (including YouTube), and use the task management features to execute multiple tasks. You’ll also know how to customize Notebook sections, create individual folders, take QuickNotes of random thoughts and information to keep them handy for instant retrieval.
This webinar is designed to help you access your notes from a wide range of devices. You will be able to estimate your workload demands, meet your deadlines, and make solid time-management principles productively work for you.
When the first thing you do in the morning is looking at your inbox, and that inbox is loaded down with clutter, you start your day overwhelmed. Finding things becomes a “needle in the haystack” experience that wastes valuable (and often very expensive) time. Those are just two problems with an overloaded inbox. Most information workers have email stored in their inbox in direct violation of their organization’s information security and record retention programs. Whether you are beholden to HIPAA, GDPR, PCI-DSS, SOX, or other regulatory requirements, no one wants to be “that person” whose email gets compromised and reveals data that shouldn’t be there.
So, what can be done? Outlook has many tools that can be employed to clean-up a cluttered inbox quickly. Then, there are techniques you can employ to keep the clutter from accumulating while also keeping the most important messages top of mind. Whether you are an Outlook veteran or new to the application, this session will pull back the covers on the full toolbox at your disposal to get your inbox manageable and keep it that way.
Microsoft Certified Trainer, Melissa Esquibel will take you through the steps to identify what can be deleted. You will learn how to quickly get rid of things that you don’t need and which may pose a risk to your organization’s information security profile. Finally, you will see what new habits you can adopt that will generate less email to delete and techniques to keep a tidy inbox, find what you need and keep productive.
