Take control of your most prescious resource: time
Understand what you should be working on, and what you shouldn't, then fit it effectively into your working week.
This practical workshop has been designed to enable you to work more effectively by prioritising the different requirements of your role, and manage your time in order to complete you most important tasks to the best of your ability. Using some of the most popular time management tools in the business world, you'll work on your own real to-do list as you understand which tasks should be done asap, which can be scheduled or delegated, and which should really be dropped completely.
You'll learn to identify which tasks contribute most to the organisational strategy, and work with other participants to develop solutions to your own "time-stealers".

Anyone in a leadership or senior sales position, who wants to understand which work best aligns to the strategy, and to fit those tasks more effectively into the day.
Since the Credit Crunch of 2008, business leaders have been expected to do more with less. The efficiencies which were made to get companies through the financial crisis have been kept right into the economic recovery. This means that organisations need to be leaner, more efficient, and more flexible. Today's leaders have huge demands on their time, but many are ill-equipped to manage these demands effectively.
At Navanter, we are unique in the market place, with our background in sales and business development, leadership, and with the organisational skills which come from effective project management. In this course, we bring the key prioritisation skills used by senior executives, and put them to work to help anyone effectively manage their busy schedule and volume of work.
