My assistant and I are both on a exchange server and are using outlook 2003.
She goes through my email, deleted the junk, and replies for me to the ones that don’t really need my time (like Jim, pls send me Bill’s number).
She can see my whole mailbox in her folder list. Tasks, inbox, everything. Full access
How can I make best use of this feature and her time. given the fact I am now using GTD (she is also using it)?
I use my Outlook tasks a lot. And use that technique were you can convert emails to tasks. The problem is that processing my inbox daily is taking to much of my very limited time!
Can she do my Email processing for me? How would that work? What if she converted an email into a @Call task, how would I know that she did it (other then seeing it in my @Call group and realizing that I didn’t make it).
What do other people who have assistants and who are on an Exchange server do to better facilitate their assistant helping them in a GTD environment?
How can we best exploit the ability for her to access my exchange mailbox to help me better mange email and tasks and my project list.
Any ideas would be much appreciated.
thanx in advance,
Jim West
