Personal Effectiveness & Time Management

Time Management skills are fundamental for individuals facing an ever-increasing workload through aggressive appraisal targets and recruitment freezes. This workshop is designed to explain the basic principles of time management. Strong reference is made to Stephen Covey’s "7 Habits of Highly Effective People". The programme is highly interactive and each delegate should have as an objective, a commitment to an action plan derived from the coursework. Previous attendees on Time Management courses particularly welcome! We make a difference.
