Corporate Training By Zack Academy - Essential Time Management and Organization Skills

COURSE DESCRIPTION

Why Should You Take The Essential Time Management and Organization Skills Workshop?

This Essential Time Management and Organization Skills Workshop is a practical, one-day workshop that will help you regain control of your time and become more organized. This workshop's unique two-pronged approach combines time management and organization skills to offer you "the best of the best" techniques, tools, and tips for taking command of your workday. We'll show you how to clear the clutter in easy steps, organize your files, and stop being a slave to sticky notes. 

"Next-step thinking" is a cutting-edge, time management technique you'll master in this workshop, one that moves you from inaction to action — and success. Control your time instead of letting it control you! Get more done in fewer hours with a time management system that you design! The trouble with traditional time management theories, we've found, is that they're onesize- fits-all. That's why the heart of this radically different program is a time management plan that you will design for yourself — allowing you to build in the flexibility you need to meet work and home commitments.
