If we all have the same number of hours in the day, then how do some people manage to meet deadlines and maintain a steady pace while others seem to be in a constant state of frenzy, always rushing to submit a report at the last minute?
The answer lies in time management, a skill that involves planning, prioritizing, goal-setting, and delegation. Time management teaches leaders to shift their focus away from tasks and towards results to ensure that they are working smarter rather than harder.
Dedicating attention to time management has the benefit of improving productivity and efficiency while decreasing stress and burnout.
