In the context of a work environment,
have you ever heard anyone say “I have too much time?” Frankly, time
management is one of the greatest challenges that we must master to
achieve our goals and objectives. In the work environment today, we
are overloaded and there is no chance of things becoming more relaxed.
A recent survey by Graham and Crossen described it as “busy to the
level of discomfort.” According to the survey, 70 percent of the
participants indicated that managing their time is more of a problem
than managing their money.
Today, associates work longer hours
despite all of the new technology. A Wall Street Journal article,
Markets (1996), reported that “with the advent of e-mail, faxes, voice
mail, overnight packets and conventional mail, the average associate
sends and receives an average of 178 messages each day.”
The “lean and mean” work environment has
forced managers to become responsible for more associates, doing more
with less, which adds even more time pressure. Another facet of time
pressure is that you can now be reached by pager, voice mail, fax or
e-mail on a “24/7” basis.
Managers and
team leaders must now share assistants with others, or have no assistant
at all. This may require you to do your own administrative support.
Today, work is more often than not accomplished through a team approach
that requires even more planning, coordination and meetings. The Time
Management module examines the important factors and offers techniques
to help you regain control of your most precious commodity, time.
