Effective Time Management Techniques To Teach Your Employees | Webinar 01.06.2016
1.
2. What we hope you’ll take-away:

your already busy day.

5. There is no time management, only
choice management.

14. A life without stress can sometimes be a life without significance. But
how you interpret the body’s response makes all the difference. A lot
of new research shows that it’s possible to develop your self-awareness
to the extent that you can approach something in a positive way, that for
another person would be negatively stressful. Another person might feel
flooded or overwhelmed, but you can develop a way to approach the
data in a constructive manner.

Constant adjustments based on what balance
looks like to you.

Is it really learning?
Well – yes . . . in every essential way.

2. Observation = mastery/learning

24. Plan for the next day, before leaving work.
• You have a sense of what to expect tomorrow.
• You sleep better without thinking about work.
• It helps you to compartmentalize work and home.
• You wake with a purpose, a sense of the day. You are
less reactive.
• You will know if you made realistic plans for the day.
• You avoid the decision dilemma. These are the time gaps when
you ask yourself, ”What should I do next?”
• You have a clear focus, which reduces your stress level.
• You enjoy family time more. You are present and focused.

1. Human physiology is wired for
breaks . . . bursts of energy and
time to recharge
2. Breaks = improved productivity
3. Mental and physical breaks are
both needed
33. IT’S 3 P.M. ON A
WORKDAY...
How do you beat the
slump?
According to a recent University of Michigan study, the
most common strategies are checking email, switching
tasks, or making a to-do list. However, none of these
tactics actually improved employees' sense of energy.
What did: learning something new.
"The more actively you can engage your brain, the more
alerting an activity is going to be," says John Caldwell,
Ph.D., a fatigue management specialist and former NASA
researcher. "You can actually overcome a good bit of
sleep pressure just by engaging in something
interesting."
So brush up on your Excel skills, for example, or watch a
short video.
