MAS006 – Time Management – Get More Done On Time!

Introduction 
Time flies! Time is universal currency. For each minute of time that comes your way you either use it or lose it.

Too often we are doing yesterday’s work today! Today’s work must be done and completed today – productive work that is. Productivity, quality work, etc. just cannot ignore TIME.

This course, which is conducted workshop style, focuses on using every work hour in productive work – every work day! We stress 100% productive work per hour because according to reports, productive work in companies worldwide accounts for less than 65% of the available work time – thus; 35% of the time is lost in counterproductive and unproductive “work”. And, we should not be doing yesterday’s work today.

Let’s cut to the chase! Don’t waste anymore time. Give this course to your employees! Now!

Learning Objective 
On completing this learning, participants will strategize their work time available to get things done pronto and use such tactics and strategies at the workplace in productive work – all the time.

For Whom
Managers, Executives, Professionals, Supervisors, Educators, Secretaries, and all others who want to be organised for work goal accomplishment.
