American Management Association Self-Study, March 2007, Pages: 112
In today’s competitive global environment, where people at all levels in organizations need to accomplish more in less time with fewer resources, the ability to manage priorities is a key factor in personal and professional success. How to Manage Your Priorities, Second Edition, teaches managers, team leaders, professionals, and others in the workplace to master this essential business skill.
In the second edition, revised and updated with a new chapter on technology-based tools, students will learn the critical benefits of managing their priorities and the common obstacles that interfere with success. They will practice goal-setting techniques and strategies for linking goals and priorities. They will learn to consider tasks and activities in terms of consequences and to separate what is urgent from what is important. Through scenarios, examples, and self-paced exercises, students will acquire strategies for focusing on outcomes and clarifying expectations, evaluating available resources, eliminating unnecessary tasks, and developing delegation skills. Students will learn techniques for planning and scheduling, the keys to working efficiently, and how technology-based tools can help manage their priorities and achieve personal and professional goals.
After completing this course, students will have acquired the knowledge and skills to realize the many benefits of managing their priorities: more productive working relationships; better outcomes, with fewer mistakes; and increased productivity through better use of their time. They will also realize the benefits of improved work/life balance, enhanced personal and professional relationships, and reduced stress.
