3 Productivity Tips for Organizing Your Work Life (60-Second Video) Here are some sure-fire tips for improving your productivity.

Productivity is all about efficiency -- doing more, faster and with less. Here are three simple productivity tips that will help you organize your work life.

  • Use your commuting time to complete simple tasks. During my morning subway ride, I go through my inbox and mark messages I need to respond to. By the time I get to work, I'm ready to respond.
  • Work "offsite" when it makes sense. When you need to write a document or research a topic, the absence of office interruptions will improve concentration. Just make sure your boss is cool with it.
  • Converse, don't email. Pick up the phone or walk down the hall and talk directly to colleagues. You can give precise direction and clear up misunderstandings quickly.
