Are you doing yesterday’s work today? How about tomorrow’s tasks?
As business gets faster and phones become smarter, you need a clearer focus on the basic principles of time management – otherwise you will run after events rather than being in charge.
Everybody has a time plan, but we don’t see enough people with smart and realistic time management. People make plans, fall behind and then abandon the habit of planning. The result is a kind of split mindset where we use the language of time management but live in a world of interruptions, procrastination and overload.
“Smart Scheduling” helps you to face the time manager’s biggest enemy: unrealistic planning. This intensive one-day training calls your attention to top bad habits in time planning, and then delivers a simple visual tool to dramatically improve your scheduling habits. Once you apply these skills, keeping your time plan will not be such a challenge any more.
We recommend this course to professionals on all levels: The methodology has helped participants from admin to CEO. For people whose responsibility includes scheduling for others, the course can be especially useful.
Objectives:
- Identify the biggest time-wasters in your task list.
- Learn a simple but powerful tool for smart scheduling.
- Practice scheduling skills on your own tasks, big and small.
- Create a personalized time-management strategy.
