Accounting Apps Podcast | Accounting Technology | formerly Cloud Stories

Today I’m speaking with Andrew Sims, CEO of SuiteFiles

Key Learnings from this episode include:

Understanding Fatigue: Decision, friction, and task fatigue impact productivity. Recognising them is the first step to overcoming them.

Practical Boundaries: Setting clear work boundaries and minimising interruptions can dramatically improve focus.

Calendar & Meeting Management: Colour-coded calendars, automated scheduling tools, and meeting transcribers save time and reduce cognitive overload.

Digital Decluttering: Organised digital workspaces reduce friction fatigue and make information retrieval seamless.

Deep Work Techniques: Methods like the Pomodoro technique, energy peak planning, and music-driven focus improve concentration.

The Right Tech Tools: Document management, email organisation, and workflow automation enhance efficiency and reduce time wasted on repetitive tasks.
