Time Management

Take control of your time…and get control of your entire workday!

Course Outline

Do you put off more today than you can ever accomplish tomorrow…have a tough time prioritizing taks when everything is urgent...exhaust yourself by 4:00 p.m. with only a fraction of your work done…see yourself as a decision maker who never gets around to making decisions…dread the next business meeting—or worse, going back to your desk to see what voice mails and e-mails await you?

If you’re doing more and enjoying it less, it’s time to get out of the time trap and back to productivity! This seminar gives you practical techniques for controlling time and making it a manageable resource.
