      What does it mean when you get an email that says “please treat this request as a matter of urgency?” Do you take it seriously? If not, then what can you do to make sure you do? For example, if you’re asked to respond to a certain project as soon as possible, are you going to respond in a timely manner? Or do you wait until you’ve completed your other tasks before responding to the request?

      There are two ways that you can interpret this statement. You can view it as a polite request or as a warning that something bad will happen if you don’t take care of the request immediately. So how can you make sure that you do not miss out on important work opportunities? Here’s an action plan that you can use:

      1.  Assess the urgency of the request by determining the level of importance that it has for your company. If it is important, then you should treat it as a matter of urgency.
      2. If the request is urgent, then schedule it on your calendar as soon as possible. It is best to respond to this type of request as soon as possible because it could be a matter of life and death. If you’re unable to meet the deadline, then you should be prepared to explain why you didn’t make the deadline.
      3. If the request is not urgent, then you should set aside time to respond to it. Make sure to leave some time for responding, or you may find yourself overwhelmed with other work tasks.
      4. If you still need more information before responding, then ask for it. Most companies will be happy to provide you with the information that you need in order to respond to their requests.
