In the 21st Century we are expected to produce more with less. Better services, quicker response times, more products to market, increased sales, and better value for money.
Managers, in particular, are expected not just to plan and prioritise their own work but to be responsible for what their team do. And team members need to take into account their colleagues' priorities as well as their own.
Whether you are a manager or a team leader, we are all under pressure to produce quality work, to time. Yet how often do you find yourself swamped by a seemingly unrealistic workload or struggling to meet an important deadline?
How on earth are we supposed to cope with this increased level of demand on our time and attention?
The fact is that this is the world that we have to live in today. There is very little you and I can do to change it. There is, however, a lot that can be done in regard to how we handle the challenges of our time challenged life.
Proper and effective use and management of time is vital to the success of organisations mad the well being of the individuals.
Packed with practical advice and insights, this succinct, easy-to-absorb workshop outlines a range of techniques and processes to help you master the essential skill of effective time management. The systems and processes the
Effective Time Management Seminar outlines are designed to be simple and to fit in with your existing way of working as much as possible - you will be on the fast track to success.
You can't stop the clock, but you can invest a few hours in this course and gain time management habits that will last a lifetime
 The Basics of Time Management
Time is a unique resource. Day to day, everyone has the same amount. It cannot be accumulated. You can't turn it on or off. It can't be replaced. It has to be spent at the rate of sixty seconds every minute.
Planning for Success
Planning is a complex process. Some people are good at it, other aren't. Planning makes two contributions which bring order to your life.
First, it tells you how to get from where you are to where you want to be.
Second, it identifies the resources required to get you there. Whether your plans are short or long term,
Effective Time Management will show you how to get the most benefits from this essential activity.
Typical Time Wasters
Everyone wastes time. It's part of being human. Some wasted time can be constructive, because it helps you to relax or otherwise reduce tension. Other wasted time is frustrating. Time wasters are usually from your environment or from yourself.
Effective Time Management will show you ways to recognise and manage your most frequent time wasters.
Taming e-mail and The Telephone
 The double edged swords of the 'phone and e-mail have made everyone accessible and in constant demand. We have had the phone for nearly 100 years but it now comes with voice mail,
SMS, mobile and wireless to allow us to make and received dozens of calls everyday of our working lives.
And contrary to all predictions, electronic mail (email) hasn't seen the demise of the amount of paper mail we receive. In fact we have seen a
MASSIVE increase in the amount of mail we receive.
Effective Time Management gives you pointers on how to get through the paperwork, make use of good e-communications and how to tame the telephone trap.
