Time Management on 31st March is a one-day programme that will help you develop a strategy for ‘event control’ and give you a range of tools and techniques to help you plan and organise yourself to be more effective.
Time is one of the most important assets at work and everyone has a responsibility to ensure it is well managed. This doesn’t always mean being ‘maxed’ out – it’s about getting balance into your life to ensure you take care of priorities.
You will learn:
- about your own work style and how this helps and hinders your time management
- how to establish and plan in your own priorities
- how to plan work around your most productive times
- how to deal with interruptions so they cause minimal impact
- how to avoid procrastination and ‘swallow the frog’!
- how to set goals with time lines and milestones
- how to decide if a task is urgent or important - or both
- how to make your Outlook or diary work for you
