Who should attend this Time Management course?
Anyone who would like to improve how they manage their time and workload.
Typically, you will learn to:
- Identify the barriers that get in the way of your work
- Understand the importance of planning and prioritising your workload
- Identify behaviours in yourself and others that cause time to be lost/encroached upon
- Identify ways to maximise your time to reduce stress and tips to improve productivity
This is a highly participative workshop, using a psychometric test to highlight areas which may explain why delegates have problems with time. Delegates will find they are not alone in their problems and the group brainstorming sessions will produce ideas for implementation back at work.

I attended this course many years ago and am pleased to say I still use the content today! Under my monitor proudly sits a post-it reminding me to DO, DEFER, DELEGATE, DELETE!!! Funny how a scribbled note stays with you. I can highly recommend the course and trainer. Kay helps you recognise the good and bad in how you operate and gives great tips to help turn things to your advantage. And it’s all done in a way that’s easily retained and simple to pass on to others. Go. It WILL help!
Really enjoyable and useful, the trainer was excellent too.
Excellent course, excellent trainer. Made me re-think my working day and personal life. Very beneficial.
This course was very valuable to my learning and I am so glad I went on it. I learned so much about managing time, prioritising and delegating that I have been using ever since. I am also now more confident in saying “no” I cannot take this task on, I can see when myself and my staff are not coping with their time management and have been able to pass on the lessons that I learned from this course to others. A real eye opener that I learned so much from.
After completing the full course, I have now handled my tasks in more efficient manner. I was exposed to useful tools to achieve my goals, at the same time enjoying my day both at work and home. I am amazed of how easy it is to work with others in terms of handling routine or difficult tasks following my participant in this course. I would recommend this course to all level of staff or any individuals.
