Time Management - Essentials
Time management starts with understanding where your time goes and what gets in the way.
This one-day course helps you identify your main time traps, set clearer priorities and make deliberate choices about how you plan and protect your work.
What to expect
Time pressure can come from competing priorities, frequent interruptions, poor planning, procrastination and taking on too much. While you cannot control every demand, you can change how you organise work, communicate boundaries and respond to common distractions.
During this course, you will review your role and highest-value tasks, then practise techniques for prioritising, scheduling, managing email, protecting focused work and starting tasks you have delayed. You will also explore assertive refusal, delegation and optional ways AI can support routine administration and first-pass planning. You will finish by identifying practical changes to apply at work.
