Jocelyn at the AWSP blog The Comp Book points out the relevance of Merlin Mann’s Inbox Zero presentation for principals. Mann’s audience is typically the Silicon Valley crowd, but his advice for handling a high volume of email is equally applicable to school leaders.

At the 2007 WASA-AWSP Summer Conference, I gave a presentation entitled “Productivity for School Administrators: Managing the Four Inboxes,” which I will post here soon. I hope to present this material again in the near future as I continue to refine my processes for handling email and the other work that shows up each day.
