'); document.write('By Kathy PaauwCopyright 2005 Kathy Paauw"One of the effects of living with electronic information is that we live habitually in a state of information overload. There's always more than you can cope with.¡¨-Marshall McLuhanSurveys show that people's stress levels are at an all-time high, and a major source of that stress is information overload. How are you managing the barrage of information you receive daily?Over the past twenty years, technology and downsizing have joined forces to turn office space into a dumping ground for information.

'); document.write('By Damen Choy In the classic management book, In Search of Excellence, by Waterman, R. et al., the authors raised many issues that determine the success potential of a company.

That means that sometimes we may have to say NO to important activities in order to attend to even more important activities that will enable us to accomplish higher priorities.When we embark on a journey and we aren't sure how to get there, we typically jot down travel directions.
