How to increase proactivity

This is the fourth of six General Psychology videos with Psychologist Adrian McInman. All videos are 6 to 9 minutes, based on research, and straight to the point (with no unnecessary fluff).

In this session, entitled HOW TO INCREASE PROACTIVITY, Adrian answers questions such as:
• What is proactivity?
• What is the impact of proactivity on your mental health?
• What is the impact of proactivity on your professional life?
• Is there a downside to being proactive in your professional life?
• Are there situations when you shouldn’t be proactive at work?
• How can you increase your proactivity?
• How would you sum up the research focusing on proactivity?

You will also learn proactivity can be increased by five techniques, summed up with Adrian's acronym, DARTS, which stands for, Deposit proactive initiatives, Act quickly, Remove distractions, create Timelines, and Split tasks.
