Time Management
Introduction
Time is irreplaceable, irrevocable and non-recoverable. If
you don’t take control of what you do with your time then ‘You’ll be
inefficient, ineffective and non-promotable. You will stand a very good chance
of becoming redundant, your subordinates (if you have any) won’t be able to do
their jobs properly, your boss will come to regard you as a waste of space. And
so, it goes on….. a vicious circle of incompetence, inadequacy, inefficiency
and ineffectiveness.
Time isn’t like the Brazilian Rain Forest;
it isn’t like a Table-Tennis Ball. Once today is finished, it cannot be
rescued. We can’t have a second go at it. We can only hope that tomorrow will
enable us to learn and apply the lessons of today. You can not have another today.
Managing Time means Adding Values to the days and nights
available to you. If you are serious about adding value to your organization,
this means spending less time on Maintenance and Crisis Prevention, because
these activities do not add value. They simply ensure that ‘value’ remains the
same. Everyone can produce a value-added mission statement for his roles. If
you can’t, it’s probably because you aren’t thinking of your role in
sufficiently value-added terms.
On the other hand, if you manage your time well, you will be
able to manage all the above. If you do not manage your time well, time will
mismanage you.
This program package makes the participants realize the
importance of time and make them learn the tricks of managing it suitably to make
them and their organization more effective, productive, creative, innovative
and cost conscious.
