Taming Time and Delegating

If you’ve ever thought something was missing from the time management training you’ve had or the tools you’re using – it could be that it hasn’t been targeted at your time style. This module helps you find out your time style and your teams, refreshes you on some time management tools and reveals the secrets to delegating!


Do you have to deliver more results but with less people than you used to have? And you’re finding you’re under more pressure and struggling to get through your own work?

Are your team now working different hours and from different locations and it’s harder to know what’s going on?

Have you ever delegated something and found your team member has done something else entirely?

These are just some of the challenges of trying to tame time in a team, and delegate. In these online bites, you’ll find out some new ways to get more done in less time, and delegate brilliantly instead!
