Time is a precious commodity, especially if you're a system
administrator. No other job pulls people in so many directions at
once. Users interrupt you constantly with requests, preventing you
from getting anything done. Your managers want you to get long-term
projects done but flood you with requests for quick-fixes that
prevent you from ever getting to those long-term projects. But the
pressure is on you to produce and it only increases with time. What
do you do?
The answer is time management. And not just any time management
theory--you want "Time Management for System Administrators," to be
exact. With keen insights into the challenges you face as a sys
admin, bestselling author Thomas Limoncelli has put together a
collection of tips and techniques that will help you cultivate the
time management skills you need to flourish as a system
administrator.
"Time Management for System Administrators" understands that an
Sys Admin often has competing goals: the concurrent
responsibilities of working on large projects and taking care of a
user's needs. That's why it focuses on strategies that help you
work through daily tasks, yet still allow you to handle critical
situations that inevitably arise.
Among other skills, you'll learn how to:
Manage interruptions
Eliminate timewasters
Keep an effective calendar
Develop routines for things that occur regularly
Use your brain only for what you're currently working on
Prioritize based on customer expectations
Document and automate processes for faster execution
What's more, the book doesn't confine itself to just the work
environment, either. It also offers tips on how to apply these
timemanagement tools to your social life. It's the first step to a
more productive, happier you.
