Overview of the webinar
- Take control of your time and get control of your entire work day!
- The speed of everything has changed. Are your time management skills up to the challenge?
- Do you put off more today than you can ever accomplish tomorrow and exhaust yourself by 4:00 pm, with only a fraction of your work done
- Do you see yourself as a decision maker who never gets around to making decisions and dreads the next business meeting- or worse, going back to your desk to see what voice mails and emails await you?
If you’re doing more and enjoying it less, it’s time to get out of the time trap and back to productive management! This presentation gives you practical techniques for controlling time and making it a manageable resource.
