Effective Time Management

• Recognising and handling time-wasters and procrastinators
• Delegation and setting objectives
• Case studies
• Moving forward with time management

Time is money! Managers are keenly conscious that time should be effectively used by all staff. The phrase that 'there is not enough' time is one that we frequently hear. The reality is that time is often not being utilised to the best advantage, or planned and controlled in an orderly fashion. Managing time means getting more control over how we spend it and there are some straightforward techniques that can be applied. It is chiefly about conditioning our environment rather than allowing our environment to condition us, and not allowing time pressures to build up from the interruptions, questions or demands of others.
