Effective Time And Priority Management

16 December 2011

16 December 2011 (Friday)
  • Duration: One-Full Day Interactive Workshop
  • Time: 9.00am to 5.00 pm
  • Venue: Marina Mandarin Singapore

Introduction

This workshop is designed to help participants to identify and overcome barriers to effective time management issues. The most common problem is that people are reactive rather than proactive and rather than acting towards long-term goals, some will react to external pressures. Through stimulating and interactive participation, participants learn a set of tools of time management and prioritizing skills which they can apply on a continuing basis to concentrate on how to help determine how much time, energy and resources is needed and used to improve the use of time.
