In this session we’ll be covering:


What we can do to make our lives easier and start to feel

more in control of our days

Time Sucks - Activity


How does your current Time Management situation make

you feel?



How much do you really want to change your situation and

improve your time management on a scale of 1-10?

10 being the highest?

Time Sucks - Action


Find - 3 things that you’re going to commit to putting into

action solidly for about a month to improve your Time

Management.



Create a pie chart with how you spend your typical day.

Proportion it up into activities

Time Sucks


Meetings

E-mails

Travelling

Phone calls



How do you waste your time?

To Do Lists


Write a List of absolutely everything you have to do

Cross off all the things that don’t actually have to be done

Underline what you can delegate

Highlight what MUST be done today

Write things on the bottom that you hadn’t planned to do

Be realistic

Delegation


Think of it as short term pain long term gain

It’s a great way of developing someone

Make sure you empower them

#1 – Being Disorganised


If you spend your time looking for things…time for a clear

out

Organise your PC; your inbox and your desk

Create a system and stick to it

#2 – Coffee and Smoke Breaks


If you’re having too many…have a re-think

Stick to one in the morning, lunch and one in the afternoon

#3 – Gaps in between tasks


Have some quick wins on your to do list

Try organising meetings back to back

#4 – Social Media


Keep a tally of how often you’re on social media

How long on average are you wasting?

If this is too long…time to cut down

#5 – Procrastination


Identify what time of day you procrastinate most and avoid doing big tasks then

Split bigger jobs into manageable chunks so they don’t feel so daunting

Allow yourself a break – if you really don’t feel like doing it. Find out why?

Watching TV; updating your social networking and checking your emails is OK providing it’s all part of the plan and it doesn’t become the norm and taking over your life. Remember you are in control of your time.

#6 – E-Mails


Allocate time to check your emails – not first thing

Turn off your email alert

Touch each email once

#7 – Interruptions


Take them into account

Add them to the bottom of your list

#8 – Saying No


Practice Saying No

#9 – Multi-Tasking


Focus on one thing at a time

#10 – Meetings


Ask yourself:

What’s the purpose?

What contribution are you expected to make

Can someone else go on your behalf?

Questions?
