How to overcome Cognitive Overload to achieve success | August Lunch & Learn

Power Skills

Overview

At Co-Lab, we connect People and Ideas. Mel and Yas share a passion for transforming people and business to build better places to collaborate on a global scale.

We are all swamped with emails, messages, meetings, keeping up-to-date with market and industry information, technology trends, and social media. There is a finite amount of time and energy we all have each day. In the worksplace, cognitive overload can kill productivity, breed negativity and dampen creativity. Understand how cognitive overload is affecting you and ways to manage it to be successful and avoid burnout.

In a world of information overload, there is a clear set of tools the Co-Lab team will share with you to help improve productivity and refocus your energy on what matters in your life. These strategies will help you with clarity around what you need to achieve as well as what is holding you back.
