Time is like a river. It keeps on flowing even though we get caught up in its turbulence and can’t seem to come up for air. Later we realize that were out of balance and off course both personally and professionally. Without effective time management skills, new and constantly changing corporate objectives can be overwhelming leaving us feeling out of control. Decision-making often resides at levels outside our own sphere of influence. Management expects us to handle more with fewer resources. Putting out fires and responding to multiple interruptions and changing priorities, becomes the bulk of our workday. Consequently, at the end of the week, month and year, we have not met our own objectives and feel disenchanted about the misuse of our time. If this sounds like your experience, then this Time Management Skills Workshop is for you. It focuses on helping participants to proactively manage time for themselves first, which ultimately leads to serving corporate objectives more effectively. This essential course helps participants understand how their own behavior contributes to poor time management. It teaches students goal setting and how to work smarter while balancing personal objectives for success.
Objectives Participants will learn to:
Utilize a time management audit to understand where their time is actually being spent
Assess their own behavior style to better manage time with others
Gauge their current life balance and make changes where needed
Establish long and short term goals that meet both work and personal objectives
Address their tendency to procrastinate and waste time
Say NO to take back control and manage time more effectively
Reorganize themselves and their workplace for success
Address those things on the agenda that "appear" urgent
Schedule in reverse to better manage time and resources to meet deadlines
Prevent obstacles from deterring their success
