Book description
Time is a precious resource, both irreplaceable and irreversible, yet
we often fill our days with time-wasting activities and leave ourselves
without enough time for our real priorities. As an effective manager,
you need to possess strong time management skills in order to ensure
that both you and your team are working as efficiently and effectively
as possible and making the most of every hour of the working day.
By first encouraging you to analyze where, how and why you are spending
your time at present and then think about the future, set goals and
develop plans, John Adair, Britain’s foremost expert on leadership
training, will help you to:
• Reduce time pressures by ridding yourself of activities that waste
time
• Learn how to save time by delegating
• Reallocate your time to achieve your goals/produce better results
Effective Time Management
contains a multitude of indispensable time-saving tips covering every
aspect of the working day, such as meetings, reading, travelling or
talking on the phone, which will enable you to use your time to think
more creatively and help you to see time as an ally instead of an enemy.
