It’s hard to imagine that I created this way back in 2015, long before I ever even dreamed of Better Workday.

I used it first to get on top of my own week. When I became a manager, I used it to help me manage my team - and for them to manage me better too!

Over the years, I’ve shared it with my one-to-one clients, workshop attendees, course students and hundreds of other people looking to improve the way they work.


My top tip to make the most of My Desk is to make a new copy of the template every week and keep all your “My Desks” in the same spreadsheet or folder.

This makes it easy to review every 6 or 12 months to see your progress and identify the next area for you to develop further.


One of the things I struggled with in the beginning was trying to fit everything onto one page.

Figuring out what was most important didn’t always come easy to me and I ended up working longer hours than I needed to.

If this sounds like you, I recommend taking a look at our Priority Management mini-course. 

It’s a section of the overall “A Better Workday” course and is a great place to start if you want to make better decisions about how you spend your time at work.

There's nothing like the feeling of a "job well done".
