  2. Agenda • How do you manage your time? • Time management tools • Some strategies

  3. How do you manage your time? Introducing five time management ‘types’ …… which one fits your approach to time management the best…..????

  4. 1. The Fireman For YOU, every event is a crisis. You're so busy putting out fires that you have no time to deal with anything else (especially the boring, mundane things such as time management). Tasks pile up around you while you rush from fire to fire all day.

  5. 2. The ‘Over-committer’ Your problem is you can't say 'No'. All anyone has to do is ask, and you'll chair another committee, take on another project, or head out for an event…that you don’t really want to go to. You're so busy you don't even have time to write down all the things you do!

  6. 3. The ‘No worry’er YOU need to realise there is such as thing as being too "laid-back" - especially when it starts interfering with your ability to finish tasks or bother to do any homework (and ultimately affecting your grades!) Getting to things when you get to them isn't time management; it's simple task avoidance.

  7. 4. The Socialiser You are born to socialise You have astounding oral communication skills and can't resist exercising them at every opportunity. Every interaction becomes a long drawn out conversation - especially if there's an unpleasant task dawning that you'd like to put off

  8. 5. The Perfectionist Exactitude is your watchword You have a compulsion to cross all the "t's" and dot all the "i's", preferably with elaborate whorls and curlicues., and you feel that no rushed job can be a good job. Finishing tasks to your satisfaction is such a problem you need more time zones, not just more time.

  9. Hopefully none… But then, perhaps a little of some??

  10. Time Management is a myth You can’t manage time – there is only ever 24 hrs in the day. You need to manage yourself and how you use the time available
