100% Personal Time Management

Overview / who should attend and why?

All of us, in both our working and private lives, need to do what needs to be done. It is to our own and everybody else’s benefit that we do so effectively and efficiently.

So many Time Management courses show you how to allocate the time you think you have available, to the tasks you think need doing, based on how long you guess each will take. This approach leaves two huge gaps!

By also considering “Time Worth Spending” and “Time It Will Take” in more detail, the Time Management Triangle is completed.

This course runs over two half-days, one week apart. A “homework” task is set for all participants to complete individually during the intervening week. The course ends with an Assessment Test.
