COMM020 - Time Management Fundamentals to Work Smarter
Boost Your Personal Productivity
The typical business professional loses $10,000 in productivity per year. Personal inefficiency at work leads to increased stress levels, lower morale, higher absenteeism, more turnover - and rising spending on employee health care and hiring. Busy professionals can lose up to three hours each day from time leaks through seemingly minor situations throughout the day. Daily frustrations combined with less downtime create a vicious cycle of workdays that are less productive with never-ending to-do lists, and extra hours of work at home each week.
Your brain decides how you will use every minute of every day. In this class, learn how to use your time more efficiently by working with your brain and not against it regardless of whether you’re working virtually, onsite or a hybrid. Discover strategic time management best practices to create longer and more intense periods of focus throughout the day, prioritize requests and demands more effectively and efficiently, and recover quickly when the unexpected derails plans. Current or emerging leaders will sharpen not only their personal efficiency skills, but will also be prepared to support their entire team in doing the same.
