Rethinking Time Management:- John Harrison Is there really such a thing as Time Management, or is Time just some uncontrollable beast that keeps on marching while we get left behind? These days it seems like everyone has to do more with less resources. We have great plans that we’d like to get started (and eventually complete), but the day-to-day demands seem to keep those valuable projects on the corner of our desk. So how do we move forward, get the job done, manage the details and still have a life? Join us for this fast-paced and interactive workshop that will: - help you understand the neuroscience behind the effects of stress and decision-making - provide valuable tools and tips that you can immediately use to tame your mounting workload - introduce the concept of proactive productivity and how to incorporate it into your daily routine FAQs Do I have to bring my printed ticket to the event? You do not need to bring a printed ticket to the event!
