Time Management Essentials

This half-day workshop is designed to give you a simple framework and tools to evaluate what needs to happen so you can deal constructively with time constraints and achieve better work-life balance.

The term “time management”, can create a false impression because time cannot be managed: we can only manage ourselves, prioritise our task and then allocate our time. So time management is actually self-management, and all time management skills can be learned.

So YOU CAN:

• Recognise your work style and time stealers
• Communicate and managing expectations
• Apply Covey's “Seven habits of highly effective people”
• Set goals and prioritise
• Apply the Pareto principle
• Utilise tools, tips and strategies to save time
• Minimise stress.

 YOU'LL LEARN ABOUT:

• Identifying your working styles and time wasters
• To be proactive in setting goals and managing time
• Communicating boundaries, saying No, and negotiating realistic win-win outcomes
• Recognising how to set priorities and manage an environment where urgent tasks do not dominate the day
• Developing practical strategies to work SMART, manage time, tasks and wellbeing.

TO ACHIEVE:

• An understanding of time wasters and how to apply successful strategies and tools to balance the competing demands of the workplace.

WHO IS THIS FOR?

• Anyone who wishes to take back control of his/her time in the workplace
• Perpetual Procrastinators
