Email management is any strategy meant to organize, declutter, and otherwise make it easier to handle the steady stream of emails you receive on a daily basis. Usually, it requires both traditional time management strategies alongside digital savvy to make your email program do some of the work for you. While it might take a lot of time up front to implement these strategies, you’ll also save time in the long run.
