The Time Management and the Use of Lean Principles course explores time management, and participants quickly learn that it has very little to do with time. We start by examining the big picture and long-term goals, then drill down, giving students powerful methods to handle all of the things that enter their world. We look at how to eliminate waste and how to handle time-wasters such as emails, phone calls, drop-in visitors, and meetings. We also talk about the biggest time waster on the planet and how to avoid it.
After taking this course, you will be able to:
- Describe the “big picture” of your life, and short and long term goals for your life and work
- Describe and implement a time management system based on lean principles, and tie the “big picture” of your life and work into this system
- Identify—and eliminate or modify—all of the time-wasters in your life and work
