The Programme

Using time well improves our overall effectiveness and adds to the quality of life. However, the management of time continues to be a serious dilemma for many people today despite our apparent familiarity with many of the practical approaches and techniques.

This Time Management workshop provides participants with a range of approaches and techniques including: setting objectives and priorities; weekly and daily planning; analysing the nature and context of a job; styles of working; devising an overall strategy for managing time and achieving a work/life balance. The thinking behind each approach is discussed, followed by suggestions and self-assessment exercises.
