NOTE: If you haven’t got to time to attend this time management training course,
why not think about an ebook - study at a time and place of your choosing - for as
long as you want.
Introduction
Poor use of time creates a range of problems - under performance, job dissatisfaction,
work overload and stress. However, there are many benefits to good time management.
One of the first steps in this time management workshop is to help delegates understand
that time management is impossible. It’s about how we manage ourselves and others
at work, and the degree to which we take ownership of time thieves, particularly
if they imposed by other people. Influencing plays a role in this workshop by encouraging
the delegates to reduce blaming others and think about how they can influence, to
get more of what they want.
We cover how to build time management techniques into daily work routines so that
time management problems can be recognised and tackled, staying in control of your
working day.
The result ?The working day will be less stressful, more productive and much more
satisfying.

Training Course Overview:
- The time management training course combines the ‘training in’ of a range of planning
and organising models, with some opportunities to practice the models in the ‘safe’
training environment.
- A variety of training methods are used, including group discussion, self-diagnostic
questionnaire, syndicate work and skill practice.
- A feature of the time management training course is the use of a Knowledge/Skill
Checklist - a list of the knowledge and skills being developed. Delegates rate themselves
at the start and finish of the training course to establish the extent to which they
have benefited from the event. This also gives the delegate, and their line manager,
an analysis of their strengths, highlighting any further development needs.
- A mini exhibition of interpersonal skill books, additional handouts and ‘hints and
tips’ sheets will be provided in the training room, for delegates to visit during
breaks.
- Delegates will be supplied with full support documentation, supplied in spiral bound
format.
- In the second part of the day, delegates focus on the specific time robbers they
are faced with, whether they are self imposed or Imposed by others, and discuss ways
of reducing or even eliminating the robbers. Feedback from the exercise is typed
up and sent back to the delegates post-course to assist with action planning. Please
email us for a sample of time robber solutions from previous time management training
courses.
- Prior to delivery of the time management training course, we would host a telephone
meeting with you to establish the nature of the delegate’s roles, their strengths
and development areas and any areas of the training course you would like us to emphasise.
