Please help me..I'm filling out an application and I'm trying to avoid being waffly when it comes to planning and organising.

[MARGOsBeenPlayingWithMyNooNoo]

I am being asked to detail skills, experience and knowledge in each subject. This section is on Planning and Organising

I write a list of tasks which need completing and consider how important each task is and when it should be completed by. I would use this method of planning when I was dealing with the office administration.

I was going to add - I use this method of planning in my home life. I wouldn't be able to run a business, work part time and have a family life without effective planning and organising.

God, I'm being so general. I think I need to be more task specific.

Any ideas?

Sorry about past and present tense. i'm off to correct it.

Okay - I've tweaked it. is this alright?

I write a list of tasks which need completing and consider how important each task is and when it should be completed by. I used this method of planning when I was dealing with the administration at my branch. I had different deadlines to meet throughout the day and would allocate a timescale for each task. This enabled me to meet each deadline and work effectively.

You might try some words about how you decide between all the things you might be doing on any day, and maybe quote some examples of what you have done in the past:
This is one of many analyses of URGENT and IMPORTANT things. (Google 'important and urgent grid' gives lots more)

Just mentioning 'time-management' and how you dealt with it can help: then link to how you things at home fit in ??

Have fun

Thanks for that Slarti.

I'm now on to Organised and methodical approach (I'd actually rename that section to Have you any tendencies towards OCD?)

I was up far too late completing my application form.

Just one more section about prioritising to complete and I'll be done.
