Personal Effectiveness The Time of Your Life This is a workshop looking at personal effectiveness in terms of time and energy management. Starting with the big picture and identifying what is truly important to participants, we then work through an approach to planning and organising. The approach puts the important things in place first (planning to achieve), but also allows both for the necessary ‘stuff’ of organisational life and for flexibility in responding to new challenges (planning to survive). We always have a vigorous ‘yes,but...’ session where participants identify - and work to resolve - all the things which will strive to sabotage their good intentions. This continues to be extremely popular both in this form as a workshop, and also with individuals as part of their coaching programme. Hailed by one participant as ‘a blinding flash of the obvious’ it has helped many to wrest back control of their time and realign their diaries with their priorities - including restoring the balance between family life and work commitments.
