Introduction to Time Management

Description

Time is money, the saying goes, and lots of it gets lost in disorganization and disruption. We also deal with a constant barrage of technology, people, and tasks that can contribute to that disorganization. Many people find that they move from one task to another, trying to get everything done but often falling short.  

In this workshop, we will introduce you to the basics of time management. We’ll talk about how to make the most of your time by getting a grip on your workflow and workspace, using your planner tool effectively, and delegating some of your work to other people when possible. 

This session will cover:  

  • What Is Time Management? 
  • Setting Goals 
  • Planning Tips and Tricks 
  • Setting Priorities 
  • Making Decisions 
  • Delegating 
  • Scheduling 
  • Putting an End to Procrastination 
  • Creating Order

  • How to better organize yourself and your workspace for peak efficiency.
