Life After Covid - Exciting New Online Programs
It's been a while since you've heard from me (did you miss me?).
When COVID started, I decided to reduce the frequency of this newsletter at a time when you probably started getting a lot more email from other sources.
On top of that, I have been ‘flat out’ since April developing the Taming the Email Tiger (more recently named Revolutionise Your Inbox) workshop into an online program.
Let me tell you about a few of the surprising things I’ve discovered in presenting this program in an online format.
Firstly, it achieves even better results than the previous one day intensive, ‘hands on’, face-to-face workshops.
Participants in the most recent Revolutionise Your Inbox Online Program reported saving 1.94 hours per day (that’s 57 days per year and $19,600 per person per year) plus 15-20% of their headspace.
Here’s what some from recent participants say about this format;
“The workshops are interactive, engaging and a great mix of step by step slides and hands on practice” says Madeline Wood
Valerie O’Neill reported, “Working through the material on a week by week basis is brilliant because it breaks it down into achievable chunks, and gives you a chance to make the changes in your own Outlook on one screen, while watching Steuart’s Outlook on the other screen – such a great way to learn – seeing, hearing and doing at the same time. Works really well in a very practical approach”.
Filomena Parente says “The course is flexible, online and accessible to do at your own pace and timeline. You can always review the online video links if you miss something during the actual online course. You learn new and existing functions of Outlook that you would never or have never thought of using before. The ‘triage view’ is 'game changer'.”
The unlimited 1:1 online coaching (using screen sharing) has taken this program to a whole new level. Even I have been surprised at how, by being able to see your inbox and folders, I can answer questions you wouldn’t think to ask and solve problems you didn’t know you had. As a number of EAs have said, “Even after using email for 20 years, you’ve shown me things I didn’t know that I didn’t know”.

And as for the results, well I think the most recent feedback from Daina sums it up so very well.
“This course has changed my work life! Amazing tips from the email master – I am so much more in control of my inbox. I never would have thought such a huge change was possible – I’ve been using outlook for years after all and thought I knew how to use it! I knew there was a better way of managing my emails and googling wasn’t helping! I am astounded at the number of time saving practices that Steuart knows. I now feel more in control of my work day and a LOT less overwhelmed. Steuart has an easy to listen to, well thought out style of presenting.”

Finally, I have also learnt that some people find a 6 week program (and the expense) too big a bite to start with. So I have now designed a menu of options to make the program more easily accessible to more people.
Appetiser - Triage View for Managing Your Inbox
Entrée - Taming the Email Tiger
Main Course - Revolutionise Your Inbox Online Program
Dessert - The Science of Writing Effective Email Online Program
The next Revolutionise Your Inbox program starts October 28th, which provides a great opportunity to get this aspect of your worklife under control in time for the end of year and the Christmas break.
Not sure which program is right for you? Get in touch with my Practice Manager Krystal Rochford at krystal@steuartsnooks.com.au and we'll answer any questions you have - whatever we can do, we're here to help.
P.S. I’m also running these programs for EAs and PAs in Great Britain, starting on 20 October (at 10 pm at night, my time).
All the best!
