Digital Tools for Productivity
Running a business or managing a busy work schedule can feel like juggling a dozen balls at once and sometimes even the cat needs to be scheduled in. This practical training session will introduce participants to a wide range of time-saving digital tools that can lighten the load, reduce paper clutter, and help keep everything (and everyone) organised.
From apps that sync your family and work calendars, to software that transcribes voice notes into neatly typed text, to clever ways to manage files and documents without endless folders, you’ll explore what’s out there, what’s worth your time, and how to get started without breaking the bank. Most tools covered will be free or low-cost, making them accessible for small business owners, team members, and anyone who wants to impress colleagues with their tech-savvy skills.
Whether you’re looking to streamline your admin, improve collaboration, or simply reclaim some time in your day, this session will give you practical, hands-on ideas you can apply immediately.
Learning Outcomes
By the end of this session, participants will be able to:
Identify and evaluate a range of digital tools and apps designed to save time, reduce stress, and improve productivity.
Understand the strengths and limitations of each tool, including cost, ease of use, and compatibility with other systems.
Sync calendars and schedules across devices and platforms for better coordination at work and home.
Organise digital files and documents for quick access, reducing the need for paper and messy desktop folders.
Convert voice notes, audio, and video into text for easy reference and record-keeping.
Implement practical strategies to streamline repetitive admin tasks without expensive software.
Share and compare experiences with other participants to discover what’s working in real businesses and what’s not worth the effort.

This is a relaxed, interactive session, so bring your curiosity, your favourite tools to share, and any productivity problems you’d like to solve. You’ll leave with a toolkit of practical options to help you work smarter, not harder.
