Strategies for Effective Time Management

Competition is intensifying, targets are escalating, pressures are mounting and distractions are many. Competitive advantage demands directing and optimizing all efforts to ensure creating value for the organization.

If one can learn how to take control of their times, not only will they be able to accomplish more with less effort, they will channelize their energies towards outcome based efforts that would yield returns par excellence.
