Manage Yourself, Manage Your Time

Manage Yourself | Productive Working

Purpose of workshop

To develop effective time management and personal planning strategies

Good time management habits are a vital foundation on which to build personal success. Poor time management habits can undermine your ability to do well. The resulting anxiety and disorganisation can reduce the quality of your work and undermine self-confidence. It can also reduce your effectiveness as a team member. Most time management advice provides a list of standard techniques which don’t take into account the specific time management problems you suffer from as an individual. In this workshop, by understanding and learning how to manage yourself – your energy, your attention and your stress levels - you will devise a personalised approach to maximise your effectiveness, when working alone and with other people.

You will use this understanding to create a balanced approach to planning and deadlines which takes account of your time management strengths and weaknesses. You will examine your procrastination habits and devise strategies to minimise the negative impact of procrastination on your motivation and confidence. You will also develop an understanding of the impact of your time management style when working with other people and learn how to develop constructive approaches to working with other people.
