Modern organisations are busy places. They are filled with busy teams and busy managers. Everyone seems to be rushing from one meeting to the next, grabbing lunch at their desk, multi-tasking, being addicted to their e-mail or smartphone, and working longer hours. But still the work never seems to get done.
Classic time management training helps people to do things more efficiently and more effectively. This can be very helpful, but what if people are busy doing things they don’t need to do? This Power Hour Expert session has been designed to help you to identify the things you SHOULD be doing, and those you SHOULDN’T, and spend your time accordingly.
In particular, by the end of the session delegates will be able to:
- Recognise the different demands on their time, and what the right balance should be
- Describe a ‘monkey’
- Identify the personal ‘traps’ that compel them to pick up other people’s monkeys
- Explain and use the 4 rules of monkey management to take back control of their time
