Better use of mobile devices can hone time management skills

Being constantly busy may not equate to productivity, so don’t allow multitasking to mess with your focus

Multitasking may not be as efficient as you imagine it to be.

If there’s one thing none of us needs it’s tips on how to work harder. But working smarter? Yes please – especially if it helps free up time for what you really want to be doing. There’s an app for that, of course.

As mobile devices transform work practices today the way the first office computers did in the 1970 and 1980s, they become as much an organisational tool as a means of communication. For instance, job searching via smartphone or tablet has soared in recent years, but according to recruitment specialist Hays, that doesn’t stop once a position has been secured. “The use of mobile apps extends into the everyday working life of the majority of employees,” says Christine Wright, managing director of Hays in Asia.
