Course Agenda

1. Theory: Introducing Multitasking – Is it Really the Best Solution?

Ben will begin by introducing the topic of multitasking through a simple exercise. Specifically, he'll demonstrate how multitasking, while often touted as a way of increasing productivity, typically has the opposite effect.

Duration: 4 minutes

2. Theory: Introducing Organizational Skills

In the next section, Ben will demonstrate how improving one’s organizational skills is typically a far better way to boost productivity than multitasking. 

Duration: 3 minutes

3. Activity: What are our strengths and development areas?

Now that the team understands the benefits of improved organization skills over multitasking, they will perform a self-evaluation. The goal is to get together as a group and determine where the team’s organizational strengths lie and where there is room for improvement.

Duration: 15 minutes

4. Theory: Factors Influencing Our Organizational Skills & Introducing an Organizational Methodology

Next, Ben will ask each person to evaluate their energy levels and ability to focus throughout the day. He will then introduce the concept of “The Energy Curve”. This is followed by the introduction of a methodology that both individuals and teams can use to better plan their work. This starts by understating to-do lists, proper prioritization, and how to schedule for maximum productivity.


Duration: 10 minutes

5. Activity: How Can We Enhance Our Organizational Skills?

In the final discussion, the team will sit down and determine how to enhance organizational skills. Ben will instruct them to use The Eisenhower Matrix to organize their collective to-do list, then list several new organizational habits they can implement going forward.

Duration: 20 minutes

6. Theory: Wrapping up the Session

Finally, Ben will finish the session by reviewing what the team has learned and how it can be used to enhance the team’s organizational skills exponentially.

Duration: 1 minute

Course Trailer

Organization is something we all seem to understand will make our lives easier, but we convince ourselves we don’t have time to implement new tactics. This team course showed my team that multitasking is an outdated ‘buzz word,’ and that there’s a lot of value in sitting down and planning together."

Collaborative Team Courses

What is included with each Teamioed team course?

Each Teamioed soft skills training session consists of a 45-minute to 1-hour guided learning experience. Leaders, managers or individual contributors are provided with a course and summary guide to help them direct each team learning and development exercise. However, our knowledgeable Teamioed virtual coaches will handle most of the work, so there’s minimal preparation involved. Simply gather the team together and get ready to learn!

Does Teamioed provide coaching tips or resources for managers? 

We do! Leaders, managers or team leaders are provided with an in-depth guide covering each team eLearning course. This lets them better understand what we’ll cover in the soft skills training experiences. It also gives them valuable information on how to contribute to the Learning experience and development activities. 

Where do I run a team course?

Teamioed’s team eLearning courses have been built to complement your team meetings or to be run as standalone team sessions. You can conduct the experience as an in-person or virtual meeting, as team-based soft skill learning is perfectly suited to any environment. Simply log in, access the session of your choice, and hit “begin.” It’s as easy as that. If you do plan to host your course remotely, just know that you will need to use virtual meeting software (e.g., Zoom, MS Teams, Slack, etc.) as Teamioed does not provide its own.   

How do I access new Teamioed courses?

New soft skills online courses will be added to your subscription automatically. You can access them through your Teamioed account as soon as they are launched.
