#WECAN Workshop: Managing your focus - How to make the best use of your time

Is your to do list overwhelming? Feeling like there’s not enough time in the day?

Time management is a widely used term within leadership and professional development, but we all have 24 hours in a day. You can’t really manage time, but you can manage your focus.

Session Objectives

This session aims to bring a sense of calm to an overcrowded to do list with competing demands. We look at why this is happening and explore a couple of tools that will help to restore order to your working day to enable you to focus on what really matters:

• Identify what is causing you concern
• Explore the action priority matrix and pareto principle
• Develop better strategies for managing your focus

This session is ideal for anyone who wishes to develop their skills in prioritisation.
