Time Management and Feedback

Course Description

The business climate has become increasingly difficult to manage time effectively. The key is to distinguish between what is important and what is not, so that the focus can be on those things which are most likely to produce tangible benefits. Time management and planning includes organisation and the use of efficient working styles. This course is designed to provide the information you need to be more organised and efficient and to allow to practise the skills by way of regular practical exercises.

The course will help participants focus on achieving key goals within the time available and with the minimum stress. The course enables people to assess their own approach to time management and to develop a series of skills for prioritising and planning work. The outcomes include both specific behavioural improvements and a detailed action plan relating to business performance improvement in the participant’s own workplace.
