Employee Multitasking & Time Management

INTRODUCTION

Many organizations require their workers to adopt more than one duty within a job role. A surgeon in a medical development centre is expected to both treat patients and to engage in explorative Research & Development (R&D). With increasing budget cuts across many countries, it is anticipated that multitasking in the workplace will increase. Employees rarely have the luxury of focusing on one task at a time in today’s work world. Most jobs require employees to balance competing demands for their time and energy, and employers expect them to be able to handle multiple priorities.

Talking about multitasking, an important characteristic to it is managing time effectively. Everyone starts with the same number of hours – so why do some people seem to get so much more done? An inability to manage time efficiently can leave anyone feeling stressed, overwhelmed and unproductive.

This workshop offers practical techniques that can be used immediately to gain control of both aspects. Participants will learn how to plan and prioritize task more effectively while managing interruptions and distractions.
