Get More Work from Fewer People…Without Making Them Quit
If a mountain of deadlines and a staff that surfs the Internet for pleasure is keeping you awake at night, bring Laura in for guidance. Good leaders understand that time management is not about squeezing more into the day; it’s about you and your team spending time productively toward the accomplishment of your organization’s goals. Managing the clock isn’t the answer—teaching employees to manage themselves is. This innovative program discusses three key time management principles for leaders:
(1) Avoiding organizational “speed bumps,”
(2) Eliminating activities that waste time, and
(3) Modeling effective time management behavior.
