The importance of "Not done"

July 18, 2024 10:50 – 11:20 · 30 min Airstream (120)

What this session covers

What does your manager expect from you? Competence, knowledge, and of course results! The ability to get things done is extremely important for career advancement. So from our first day of professional life, we are constantly getting better at it. And the more skilled we become at getting things done, the more trust we earn from our managers and stakeholders.

Then you get promoted, step into a management role, and… everything changes. Suddenly you are overwhelmed with tasks, requests, and demands. You try to do your best, but you don’t get much results, you burn out… That’s when I realized that the art of “not getting things done” became even more important.
