Welcome to From Frazzled to Focused: How to Regain Control, Connection and Calm When Working From Home!
I'm Alexis Haselberger, a time management and productivity coach. I help people, and teams, do more and stress, less.
And you know what else? I'm an expert at working from home productively, and I want to teach you my secrets!
Download the workbook and let's go!
After watching this lecture, you'll understand how the course will progress and you'll have downloaded the course workbook so that you are ready to tackle the next sections!
In this lecture, we'll talk about how to set boundaries (in both time and space) so that you can work from home without work bleeding into every aspect of your life.
After watching this lecture, and completing the exercise in the workbook you already downloaded, you'll have identified key boundaries for yourself and have an action plan to make sure your boundaries are implemented.
At home, we've got different challenges to staying focused than we do in the office. In this, we'll learn about strategies for mitigating distractions so we can stay focused!
After watching this lecture you should have a better awareness of the distractions that affect you most at home. And you will have an action plan for reducing these distractions.
When we can't rely on casual conversations in the office, we need strategies to ensure that we're communicating effectively when we're remote. After completing this lecture, you'll know how to best use the various communication channels we have at our disposal, and how to be responsive to others without affecting our productivity.
In this lecture, we cover how to maintain the good vibes with our coworkers. When we're not in the same physical space, it can take a little extra effort to stay connected to coworkers...but it's worth it!
After completing this lecture, you'll have practical solutions for maintaining relationships with coworkers even when you don't see them in person.
Managing your team, either when you are remote or they are, can provide different challenges from managing in-person. In this lesson, I'll share some fundamentals for effectively managing from afar!
After completing this lecture, you'll have some additional tools in your toolbox for managing, and trusting, your team so that you don't succumb to micromanagement.

Are you ready to go from frazzled to focused? Are you starting to fray around the edges as you try to adjust to "the new normal"?
Let me help you to regain control, connection and calm while working from home.
You might be someone who is brand new to working from home, or you might have been working from home for a long time, but now you're trying to share space with partners, roommate and/or kids who are also trying to work (and learn) from home.
In this course, we cut through the noise (of 1000+ "best tips for working from home" articles) and I provide you with a step by step plan to reign in the chaos, get productive from home, and even enjoy it.
Imagine how it would feel if you were able to:
Disconnect from work in the evening, even when you're working AT home.
Get your important work done, even though you've got your kids, partner or even pets competing for your attention during the day.
Keep your work relationships healthy and maintain good will and camaraderie with your coworkers.
Feel confident that you're addressing the needs of your team, even when you no longer see them every day.
When you complete this course, you'll be able to:
Set boundaries (in time and space) so you can avoid letting work bleed into your home life
Stay focused (in the face of distraction) so you can get as much, if not more, done than when you were in the office
Communicate effectively (from a distance) so you maintain relationships and hit your goals
Stay connected (to your coworkers) so you don't lose touch and keep morale high
Manage your team (remotely) so that your team stays hyper-productive and you don't turn into a dreaded micromanager
Work productively from home even if you've got kids and pets you're responsible for
In short, you'll move from feeling frazzled to focused! You'll be productive and calm, when working from home.
This course is for you if:
You're having trouble separating work from home life
You're more distracted than ever right now (by your family, the comforts of home, or your incessant need to check the news)
You're feeling like you're out of the loop, or having more miscommunications you do in the office
You don't feel as connected to your team as you'd like to be
You know you need a game plan, but you're overwhelmed by all the "free tips" floating around the internet
The lectures in this course are complemented by exercises to help you set boundaries between work and home, identify and minimize distractions, decide on communication channels with your team and increase your focus even in the face of distractions. The exercises ensure that you apply the content from the lectures in a practical and pragmatic way so that you have an actionable game plan!

PLEASE NOTE: This course was developed, filmed and edited from home (where I am "sheltering in place" due to the Coronavirus outbreak). As such, the production quality reflects the "at-home" nature of our currently reality and there is therefore comprised in large part with voiceover and slides content versus direct to camera video. If you have taken my "Time Management Mastery: Do More, Stress Less" course you might wonder why they were filmed differently, and this is why.
