When the first thing you do in the morning is look 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 records 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.

Our Microsoft Certified Trainer speaker, Melissa Esquibel will take you through the steps to identify what can be deleted. Then 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.
