Time Management: Productivity and Time StealersAli Zeeshan
Some say there is nothing more precious than time so, as with all things that are precious to us, we should not waste it!
A poor use of time can lead to issues with: your personal finances and your long-term career aspirations; relationship problems at home; and/or health problems brought on by stress and anxiety.
Unfortunately, there are many demands coming from ‘time stealers’ who are, potentially, diverting you from using your time in the way you wish to use it.
The aim of this webinar is to provide you with a brief insight into the strategies, tools and techniques you can utilise to help you manage your time more effectively.

Unveiling the Secrets How Does Generative AI Work.pdfSam H
At its core, generative artificial intelligence relies on the concept of generative models, which serve as engines that churn out entirely new data resembling their training data. It is like a sculptor who has studied so many forms found in nature and then uses this knowledge to create sculptures from his imagination that have never been seen before anywhere else. If taken to cyberspace, gans work almost the same way.

Enterprise Excellence is Inclusive Excellence.pdfKaiNexus
Enterprise excellence and inclusive excellence are closely linked, and real-world challenges have shown that both are essential to the success of any organization. To achieve enterprise excellence, organizations must focus on improving their operations and processes while creating an inclusive environment that engages everyone. In this interactive session, the facilitator will highlight commonly established business practices and how they limit our ability to engage everyone every day. More importantly, though, participants will likely gain increased awareness of what we can do differently to maximize enterprise excellence through deliberate inclusion.
What is Enterprise Excellence?
Enterprise Excellence is a holistic approach that's aimed at achieving world-class performance across all aspects of the organization.
What might I learn?
A way to engage all in creating Inclusive Excellence. Lessons from the US military and their parallels to the story of Harry Potter. How belt systems and CI teams can destroy inclusive practices. How leadership language invites people to the party. There are three things leaders can do to engage everyone every day: maximizing psychological safety to create environments where folks learn, contribute, and challenge the status quo.
Who might benefit? Anyone and everyone leading folks from the shop floor to top floor.

Where Does Your Time Go?
(Source: PDF No Task Left Behind? Examining the Nature of Fragmented Work. Gloria Mark, Victor M. Gonzalez, Justin Harris
The Average Worker In The
United States Loses 2.1
Hours Per Day Due To
Interruptions And
Distractions
• On Average It Took
Workers 25 Minutes To
Return To Their Original
Task – If They Returned
To It At All That Day
“Time Robbers” Steal Your Time And Distract
You From Pursuing Your Goals
• Time Robbers Are Activities And Individuals
That Divert Our Attention Away From The
Goals We Have Established For Ourselves
And Our Business
• Time Robbers Steal Valuable Time Away
From Us. Some Of These Time Robbers Are
Imposed Upon Us By Others. These Types
Of Time Robbers Can Fall Anywhere Between
Total Control To No Control
• Other Time Robbers Are Self-inflicted. In
Other Words, We Rob Ourselves Of Valuable
Time. As Such Most Of These Time Robbers
Are Within Our Total Control
Time Robbers Are Typically Categorized As
Self-Inflicted Or Imposed Upon Us
Imposed Upon Us
• Uninvited Interruptions
• Waiting For Answers
• Too Much Work
• Equipment Failures
• Red Tape
• Staff Demands
• Disorganized Supervisor
• Unnecessary Meetings
• Poor Meeting Management
Self - Inflicted
• Procrastination
• Socializing
• Personal Disorganization
• Absentmindedness
• Poor Planning
• Perfectionism
• Paper Shuffling
• Fatigue
• Lack of Self-Discipline
6. 6
Ways Of Overcoming Procrastination
Make The Task Meaningful
– Ask Yourself Why The Task Is Important To You And What It
Has To Do With Your Long-term Goal
Take The Task Apart
– Sometime An Assignment Can Appear To Be Overwhelming.
Breaking Large Assignments Into Manageable Parts Will Help.
Set Dates To Work On Each Of The Pieces
Keep Yourself Organized
– Having Everything You Need Right At Your Fingertips Will
Save A Lot Of Time When Starting A Project
Plan A Reward
– Do Something For Yourself That You Would Not Normally No,
But Withhold The Reward If The Task Remains Incomplete
Just Do It – Complete The Task
– The Moment You Find Yourself Procrastinating, Complete The
Task; Then, You Won’t Have To Think About It Anymore
Time Robbers Inflicted On You;
Poor Meeting Management and Attendance
More Than 11 Million Meetings Are Held Each Day
• Some Meetings Are Necessary - Make The Most Of The Ones
You Choose To Attend
Improving Meetings Requires Discipline
Send/Receive Meeting Materials In Advance
Create An Agenda In Advance And Distribute With Other
Pre-meeting Reading Materials
Start On Time – Get Others In The Habit
Cancel Meetings If Preparations Not Complete
Do Not Reread Pre-meeting Materials – Establish
Accountability For Proper Preparation
Stay Focused And Finish Early If Possible
Time Robbers Self - Inflicted; Lack Of Self-
Discipline
• You Know What You Need To Do, Yet You Seem To Have A
Hard Time Accomplishing Things
• A Lack Of Self-discipline Not Only Prevents Us From Getting
Things Done, But It Is Not Good For Our Self-esteem
Potential Solutions
• Start Small – Try To Break Large Tasks Into Small Steps So
They Don’t Look And Feel So Overwhelming
• Establish Tasks And Work To Accomplish Them - Take
Things One At A Time
• Regulate Breaks – Reward Yourself With “Free Time” After
Task Completed
• Recognize How Good It Feels To Get Something Done –
Celebrate Small Victories!
7. 7
If You Use Prioritized Task Lists, You
Will:
• Remember To Carry Out All
Necessary Tasks
• Tackle The Most Important Jobs
First, And Do Not Waste Time On
Trivial Tasks
• Eliminate Most Stress By Removing
Or De-prioritizing A Large Number
Of Unimportant Jobs
• Be More Focused, Productive And
Organized At All Times
Effective Task Prioritization Ensures That Key
Important Activities Take Precedence
Delegation, Partnering And Collaboration Are
Powerful Tools To Leverage Others’ Time
The Leverage Model Has Been Used For
Centuries To Facilitate Greater
Productivity
• Lose The “I Must Do It All” Mindset –
• Others Can Effectively Do The Job While
You Manage The Process, Save Time
And Enhance Your Throughput
• Invest Time To Train Subordinates – Then
Empower Them
• Search For Strategic Partners That
Compliment Your Team’s Skill Set
• Collaborate With Suppliers To Improve
Customer Service Levels, Engagement And
Loyalty
Like Any Scarce Resource, Time Requires
Organization And Scheduling
By Using Scheduling Properly, You Can:
• Understand What You Can Realistically
Achieve With Your Time – Limitations
• Plan To Make The Best Use Of The Time
Available – Optimization
• Leave Enough Time For Things You
Absolutely Must Do – Prioritization
• Preserve Contingency Time To Handle
“The Unexpected” – Flexibility
• Minimize Stress By Avoiding Over-
commitment To Yourselves
8. 8
Examples Of Tasks To Schedule:
• E-mail Correspondence
• Order Delivery Follow Up
• Strategic Planning
• Marketing Activity Planning
• Financial Duties – Collections,
Invoicing
• Mentoring/Direction To Sales
Managers
• Training – Leading And Attending
• Slack/Contingency Time
• Regular Meetings (Weekly
Performance Reviews, etc.)
Many Tasks Can Be Planned And Scheduled
As Recurring Activities
Striking A Balance Between Responsiveness
And Interruption Is A Challenge
Responsiveness Engenders Trust
Being A Responsive Communicator Builds Loyalty
And Support Throughout Your Entire Network
Responsiveness Can Be A Distraction
Being A Responsive Communicator Can Lead To
Continual Interruptions In Your Work Flow And
Ineffective Use Of Your Time
You Need To Find Your Balance
There Is No Ideal Balance For Everyone; You
Must Find Your Own Balance, But Understand
Your Potential Biases That Shape Your Selection
Of Balance
Time Management Tips

– Spend Some Time At The Beginning
Of Each Week To Plan Your
Schedule
• Carry A Notebook
– Write Down Those Great Ideas And
Brilliant Insights (Capture Your
