If you are struggling with things like effectively planning tasks and having the appropriate skills and techniques to then implement your plan then this course will work wonders for you.
Telltale signs that this course would work well for you include frequent or habitual:
1. Procrastination?
2. Running late?
3. Overscheduling yourself?
4. Being forced to rush jobs to hit deadlines as you are behind?
5. Lacking genuine control of your workload?
Yes, we do. We offer 6 months of post-course support.
During this period if you are struggling to implement the time management techniques that we cover let us know and we’ll get your trainer to make contact.
Depending on what the issue is we may offer email or phone support, whichever we feel will provide you with the best experience and support your use of the techniques and tools that we teach you best.
Our time management training is highly personalised. We don’t take the cookie cutter approach that many other time management courses do.
Learning effective time management tools and techniques is only half of the battle. The key is then to look at how you can implement those tools and techniques in your own particular situation.
For some people effective delegation will offer a useful solution for others other techniques (learning to deal with disruptions for example) will a more effective time management solution.
The Action Priority Matrix is one of a number of great ways to review your To-Do list and diary to ensure you are focused on your highest impact and highest return activities.
We have created a worksheet which walks you through the exercise.
All you need to do is print it out and follow it through step-by-step.
