KLM “The Email Handyman workshop provided exactly the right motivation to breath new life into the Getting Things Done method . This GTD ‘lite’ version simplifies putting GTD in practice. It makes it so much easier to uphold the habit whilst maintaining its power!”

Berrie Duijx, Team Manager E-Services – KLM Royal Dutch Airlines


“I am very grateful for what Email Handyman has done for me! My head has been cleared and I feel I have more overview at work. Highly recommended!”

Eva Struving, Director International and Charities – Novamedia


Akzo Nobel logo “This is the best time management class I have ever taken. Too many of them talk about theory, and you end up falling back into bad habits. I learned more practical, real life short cuts and strategies in 3 hours than I have in all of my other time management courses combined. I spend many hours dealing with emails in Outlook so this is an area where I can truly make time savings in my day. I thought I knew how to navigate through Outlook fairly well, but I was surprised by all of the short cuts and ways to truly manage my inbox. I would highly recommend this course to anyone!”

Thomas McMahon, Talent Acquisition Manager – Akzo Nobel US

 ”My team enjoyed the workshop as much as they thought it useful. I implemented all the tips immediately and it works like a dream. Great stuff!”

Monique Bollen, Commercial Director Paperlinx Europe

 ”It’s practical, simple and powerful. Its power is its simplicity. This is why I keep using it and why it is so efficient”

Aernout de Bruijn, IT architect IBM


 ”I had not expected to be able to improve this much. The action folders method really works. The simplicity ensures that you keep using it. It is a real time-saver and gives peace of mind!”

Welcome to the Email Handyman website. We are about corporate effectivity through training and consulting on email, use of email and non-use of email. We use a very pragmatic approach to enable you to pick and choose from several handy tricks that make daily email processing easier and faster. Resulting in an empty inbox and more "back to work" hours on a daily basis.

So why do email training? Everyone knows how to write and send emails don't they? Of course they do, and we do this so well that nowadays every office worker spends several hours a week simply processing incoming email and trying to organise the results of the ever increasing flow of emails. There are good reasons to invest a little time into yourself to improve how we do this, to name a few: 

  • Email has become the number one killer application in the office environment. It is by far the most used application and is of crucial importance to all organisations, yet it has become more than that, it is now also the "productivity killer application" and is still growing as a time-management problem area.
  • Though email is one of our most important tools in the office very little attention has been spent on how to use this tool effectively. This means there is plenty of area for improvement! 

How does Email Handyman help?

  • Improve the use of your email program (Outlook, Notes, Gmail, ...)
  • Better control over your Inbox
  • Faster processing using shortcut keys
  • Do more in less time

Email Handyman has two preferred services to improve your effectivity, the blitzworkshops and @yourdesk sessions.

Blitzworkshops: short group-based workshops presented on- or offsite. The workshops cover both personal effectivity for managing email and best practice examples for sending email. This workshop is tailored towards the email program (commonly) used in your organisation.

@yourdesk sessions: one-on-one sessions at your own desk. During the session your current workstyle is reviewed and the advice is based on how to improve from there taking current habits and skills into consideration. The improvements are implemented immediately on the spot.

Would you like to meet Email Handyman, talk with them or perhaps even send them and email please contact us and we will look into what we can do for you (or your company).
