I’ll be doing a presentation for Refresh Dallas on February 7th at the Christopher A. Parr Library in Plano. The presentation will be on e-mail and heavily based on a prior presentation made by Merlin Mann (43 Folders).
Merlin did a series of articles on his site called Inbox Zero and later on did a presentation for Google. I was absolutely amazed at the common sense approach to managing a large amount of e-mail and felt that others would benefit from it as well. My presentation will follow the same basic presentation that Merlin did but will reflect my own experience as an IT professional. For the last 3 1/2 years or so I have worked as an IT Assistant for a small architectural firm and have worked with plenty of people who are e-mail challenged. My hope is that this experience will come across in this presentation and will show others how a lack of e-mail management can hinder productivity.
Check out the Refresh Dallas website for more details! If you’re interested in coming, be sure and RSVP on the website. Although Refresh Dallas is an organization based around web developers and designers, this presentation isn’t limited to a particular group. So if you know someone who is e-mail challenged, bring them along! Just be sure and let the Refresh guys know you’re bringing someone in your RSVP.
See you there!
