Community
Another Productivity Hour will be scheduled soon!
Sign up for the newsletter to be the first know about the next event! Get productive and hyper-focused, one hour per month, with Janice and others in the Janice Your VA network. Each month, we gather virtually over Zoom and work on our respective projects in 2-3 focus blocks called "sprints": 20-minutes/sprint with a few minutes break in between.
We call it Community Productivity Hour. It's free to participate, but registration is required. Let's work - together! |
How We Do Community Productivity Hour
Drop in and stay on, as long as you are able. Be as introverted or extroverted as you like. Both social types will benefit from focused time together.
What happens during Community Productivity Hour?
Where the "Pomodoro" meets Social Accountability. We will simply work simultaneously on our individual projects for an hour, with quick breaks, every 20 minutes. There will be time to socialize and share as much or as little as you like with the community, before and/or after the hour.
By signing up, you'll get prompts and reminders every step of the way:

By signing up, you'll get prompts and reminders every step of the way:
- In the week leading up to the Community Productivity Hour day, registrants will receive an email reminder with the date, time Zoom link, and encouragement to choose a project and a goal for the Productivity Hour.
- 15 minutes before the event starts, we’ll open the Zoom meeting. Feel free to join early for an opportunity to socialize.
- Establish your goal for the next 20-60 minutes;
- Prepare your environment and your tools for the hour: pull up that file, get out the receipts, get a glass of water, etc.
- If you like, share your Productivity Hour goal &/or a photo of your readied environment.
- At the top of the hour, you'll get the signal to start! Mics will be muted and cameras can be turned off.
- After 20 minutes of focus time,, there will be a quick check-in, encouraging you to continue working and bringing you back into the hour, in case you got off-track. No need to respond, especially if you're in the flow!
- At the end of the event, I’ll announce the completion of the hour, and we'll close by celebrating together! Feel free to share what you accomplished or learned from the experience!
