Managing Multiple Priorities & Your Time
Description
This workshop is designed to help individuals to feel a greater sense of meaningful accomplishment at the end of a workday and to help organizations cut the human and financial costs associated with wasted time and efforts.
“I just don’t have enough time. I wish there were more hours in the day!” Our lives sometime leave a trail of incomplete tasks, haunting quiet moments. While extra time would relieve some of the pressures that people experience, their dilemma often involves confusion about priorities. Examining how you currently prioritize and use your time and then building simple techniques into your work schedule can help you to more effectively juggle competing demands, create more time for your truly important responsibilities, and decrease the stress, frustration, and guilt often associated with today’s workplace.
Who Should Attend
Anyone who would like to take more control over how they use their time and what they do with it, managers trying to identify how to help themselves and their direct reports stay focused on priorities, intact teams looking for ways to more efficiently work together.
You Will Learn
After this workshop, participants will be able to:
- Identify how they currently spend their time
- Identify and focus their energy on high-priority tasks and responsibilities
- Develop and on-going check of their activities relative to their priorities
- Navigate multiple competing priorities
- Eliminate or better manage their biggest time wasters
- Use their learnings to help others better manage their time and focus on priorities
- Be sure that they do not become somebody else’s time waster
Participants are encouraged to complete a Time Audit for five consecutive workdays before the start of the workshop. While this is not mandatory, the Time Audit allows people to begin to uncover their improvement opportunities and to base discussions on actual data. Please send emailed requests for Time Audits to ptt@lynchburg.net, at least two weeks prior to the start of this workshop.
