Time management
This document provides an overview of a time management training program. It discusses the importance of time management and introduces three skills for prioritizing effectively: 1) create a master plan that captures all tasks, 2) schedule important "big rock" tasks and don't get bogged down by less important "gravel" tasks, and 3) protect your plan by pausing to evaluate what is truly important when new tasks arise. The training aims to help participants better manage their priorities and focus on the things that matter most through applying these time management skills back in the workplace.

- #10 Airplane Tickets – Time Management Story Ask: Anyone here who has ridden an airplane just recently? Where to? How was your trip? How much did you your plane ticket cost you? Consider for a moment the price of an airplane ticket. Each airplane has a limited amount of space. And the goal of the airline is to fill the airplane as much as possible.
- #11 LOW RES Were the seats all filled up? Vacant seats? CONSIDER THE PRICE OF AN AIRPLANE TICKET Airplane – 100 Seats, 50 Seats left unoccupied, how much? When an airplane leaves the gate with empty seats, the price of those seats immediately drops to $0.00. Once the plane lifts off, the opportunity to sell the empty seats is gone forever and the airline has absolutely no chance of getting a penny for it. The value of an airline seat is directly related to whether it is occupied. Whether the price is $400.00 or $40.00, the seat has value only if there is a person sitting in it. After take-off, the chance for payment is history. The same can be said about ‘time’. Each one of us has a specific amount of time that goes by with every moment. Lost or wasted time cannot be recovered. It is gone the moment that it passes. The value of an unused minute drops to zero the moment it passes.
- #13 Creating an environment conducive to effectiveness Setting of priorities Carrying out activity around those priorities The related process of reduction of time spent on non-priorities Incentives to modify behavior to ensure compliance with time-related deadlines.
- #14 Everyone has the same amount of time available each day - 24 hours, 1,440 minutes, and 86,400 seconds. All these are constant. There are 168 hours in every week. How are you spending yours? Self management is a process of evaluation, prioritizing and organizing one's tasks. An individual who cannot manage his time effectively, who lacks a clear perception of available time, and who fails to monitor his own use of time will likely fail to accomplish tasks in a timely manner. Such failure generally leads to poor job performance and limited productivity. Why care about time management? The main reason is that time management benefits you. “Why should I manage my time?” The simple answer is that time management helps you stay on top of your tasks and get more done. Yet, there is much more. Time management benefits you in all areas of your life. Time management is all about spending your time in the right places, and on the right things. It’s about knowing your priorities, obligations, and schedule. When you manage your time, you benefit in all areas of life. You don’t manage time. You manage yourself, others, and your work.

- #35 –Brian G. Dyson President and CEO, Coca-Cola Enterprises during his speech at the Georgia Tech 172nd Commencement Address Sept. 6, 1996 Imagine life as a game in which you are juggling some five balls in the air. You name them – work, family, health, friends and spirit … and you’re keeping all of these in the air. You will soon understand that work is a rubber ball. If you drop it, it will bounce back. But the other four balls – family, health, friends and spirit – are made of glass. If you drop one of these, they will be irrevocably scuffed, marked, nicked, damaged or even shattered. They will never be the same. You must understand that and strive for Balance in your life.
