    <div>Hello!</div>

    <div><br></div>
    <div>I was able to attend the Tuesday, 11:15 a.m. "Productivity: Strategies to Thrive in the Modern Workplace" session.  The presenter gave advice managing how we work and at the end shared some tools to help with daily work.  There was discussion around different types of work that we can identify:  Admin, Deep Work, Meetings, Other.  We need time for deep work and time for collaborative work; block time for deep and focused work.  I also learned about the 3 Ds: Delay, Deny or Delegate.  Another tidbit the presenter suggested that every 2 - 3 months you should document how you are spending your time.  This can help us figure out how we are spending our time. </div>

    <div>If you had any sessions you thought were worthwhile, please share below in a comment or you can email me.</div>
