"Because time, attention, and resources are finite, wise prioritization lies at the heart of any flourishing organization or meaningful life. Yet there's surprisingly little actionable advice on how to do it well—and many seductive reasons to avoid it entirely. This approachable, psychologically astute, and deeply practical book has the potential to change all that. Reading it is well worth your time." —Oliver Burkeman, author of Four Thousand Weeks: Time Management for Mortals Managing Priorities is your guide to prioritizing anything—anytime and anywhere. Harry Max digs into the best practices for prioritization at Apple, DreamWorks, NASA, Adobe, Google, Microsoft, and beyond, and brings them together in a single, practical method that you can apply step by step. Who Should Read This Book? Every business person who is even remotely interested in prioritization should read Managing Priorities. Whatever you need to prioritize—tasks, goals, OKRs, projects—this book is for you. Specific chapters are dedicated to what needs to happen and when for individuals, teams, and whole organizations. Takeaways Learn what prioritization is. Gain insight into the costs of not prioritizing intentionally. Explore different methods of prioritization, including the Eisenhower Matrix, the Analytic Hierarchy Process, the Max Priorities Pyramid, Paired Comparison, Stack Ranking, and more (highlighted in the Appendix). Apply the author's DEGAP® method of prioritization with its five phases: Decide, Engage, Gather, Arrange, Prioritize. Identify, understand, and address your current state or lack of prioritization (the context of your problem, the people involved, and the issues surrounding timing). Use a scale to differentiate items to prioritize and arrange them appropriately. Select an approach to prioritization that works for your specific situation.

There's no such thing as ""time management"". Time can’t be made to last longer or spent faster than it comes. It can’t be saved up for later. It simply proceeds as it always has, uninterrupted, and all anyone can do is live within it.You Can't Manage Timeis a guide for overwhelmed professionals doing their level best to get it all done. However, the way to do it isn't by managing time but instead by managing yourself - your creativity, your energy, and your communication. Early on, the reader is invited to complete a short assessment ("Ask Yourself") aimed at identifying strengths and shortcomings relative to getting things done. The "Ask Yourself Score Sheet" organizes the responses into categories, six in all. Five of the six categories are squarely within an individual's direct ability to control and manage (for example, procrastination, professionalism, communications). The last category - "Beyond Your Control" - acknowledges that certainly there are things that fall out of the sky and land in your lap. The point of the book is that it is well within the reader’s power to improve significantly. More than a mere how-to, it's a book of encouragement and practical advice. The author also includes the practical application of emotional intelligence in the workplace, and there are a number of places where practical recommendations about handling the challenges of managing many priorities are linked to Daniel Goleman's Emotional Intelligence model.

Mining and industrial activities, if poorly managed, can damage the environment and leave behind contaminated soils, polluted groundwater, and waste material. The two papers in this volume illustrate the methodologies developed for selecting priority sites for remediating environmental problems due to mining. It also describes the high priority investments that would provide the greatest benefits for the available resources. The methodologies have broad application and could be used to identify priority remediation investments in other sectors where past activities have led to environmental problems.
