Time Management and Personal Effectiveness

The first step in increasing the overall productivity of an organisation is to enhance the efficiency of each individual member of staff. The development and improvement of individual competences across the civil service is therefore a key aspect of the Performance Management and Development System (PMDS). Personal effectiveness, incorporating self confidence, achievement, drive & commitment, initiative, teamworking and communications, is one of the PMDS’ four behavioural competency clusters.

What is personal effectiveness?
Personal effectiveness starts with an understanding of one’s own strengths and preferences as well as weaknesses and areas in need of development/improvement. This course will show you what makes one person highly productive and another unproductive or what drives one person to success while others watch the clock.

What you will learn
At the end of the programme, participants will be equipped with the necessary skills to manage themselves more effectively so as to enhance their use of time. They will be more assertive at taking action and understanding themselves and others. The result will be an overall improvement in team building and performance which will facilitate stronger team dynamics and communication in the organisation.
