If you stick to a set schedule you’re most likely a ‘clock-timer’ whilst if you have a looser relationship to the clock you’re most likely an ‘event-timer’. Try experimenting with the alternative style to see what you achieve/learn (e.g. dedicate clock-time to clear a to-do list or tackle solving a problem using event-time if there is no strict cut-off).

Why?

No style is inherently better than another. Recognising your own style and switching between them allows you to tailor your approach to various tasks or when collaborating with others, ultimately enhancing your effectiveness.

You know it’s working when:

• You understand your style better

• You learn to adapt your style to the situation

• You identify other people’s style
