Eisenhower Matrix

A useful tool to decide on and prioritize tasks, by urgency and importance. Also referred as Urgent-Important (UI) Matrix.

When to use Eisenhower Matrix?

I love this tool as very visual exercise with clear action plan. I use it for clients who feel overwhelmed with tasks.

How to use it?

List tasks positioning them in the matrix on the right. Analyse where most tasks are. For each quadrant, do as mentioned:

With CliftonStrengths assessment
Reverse-engineering past successes
Analysing when you are in the flow
Inquiring reflective questions such as:
What do you get complimented on?
What do your colleagues, boss or friends value?
What do you like about you?
