Course Type: Classroom

Description:

"What happens to the 24-hours in a day? Do you spend so much time on maintenance that you never have time for the activities that would advance your company and your career? Are you frustrated that the people you lead waste time? Are you concerned as a leader or employee that your life lacks balance? Would you be more successful if you just had a little more time?

As much as we would like it to be otherwise, we cannot stop, save, or stretch time. The only option we have is to control the time we are given. Time management, therefore, is actually self-management.

As a participant in "It’s About Time," you will discover specific ways to spend time on the activities that count toward the fulfillment of your mission, vision, and goals. You will also learn to judge wisely between competing demands on your time. Perhaps most important, you will explore a specific process for achieving a healthy balance between your personal and professional life. This balance will maximize your productivity at work and your enjoyment of life.
