Time is On My Side Workshop

Who remembers the above named song made famous by Rolling Stones? Mick Jagger expresses confidence that time is on his side! Well, these days we rarely feel that way! There are more demands on our time this century, than perhaps any time in the past. Stress related conditions are one of the top two reported reasons for sickness absence in N.Z. People are anxious about everything they ‘should' be doing with their time. The Time is On My Side course allows them to take back control and only focus on the important stuff. People on the course are encouraged to explore what is important to them about their work and as much as possible, match these goals with employer goals. They will then have an investment in being productive in these areas.

Managing time in today's world

This course is concerned with life ‘now' in 2008. It teaches techniques for managing time that take into account the unique demands on today's workforce including the demands made by technology: emails, blackberry's, cell-phones etc. It draws on insights from sociology that look at today's trends in and outside of work that create endless choices for us. The course discusses unique ways that we can learn to navigate these choices. We can develop a good perspective on what is important (sometimes called work-life balance) and rather than feeling we never have enough time, we can always feel that time is on our side!

What you and your staff will learn on this course:

1. How to develop vision and clarity in relation to workplace goals
2. How to work with technology so you are in control (and so that it doesn't manage you!)
3. Produce well in the shortest amount of time, using some excellent, practical, easy to use, strategies.
