Personal Organisation & Planning

Stop the inordinate stress and performance degradation
 

Personal Organisation & Planning

The absence of self-management is characterised by last minute rushes to meet dead-lines; meetings which are either double booked or achieve nothing; days which seem somehow to slip unproductively by; crises which loom unexpected from nowhere. This sort of environment leads to inordinate stress and degradation of performance: it can be stopped.

This product area is led by Jim Hetherton. Jim draws on his corporate experience as a Manager at Tesco as well as his consulting experience at FranklinCovey to design and develop our approach. He has helped many thousands of people in the last 20 years to improve their performance by applying some world class techniques. Jim continually receives exceptional feedback from delegates for his "life changing" sessions.

Our approach helps:

  • Increase productivity, personal and team performance – empowering you with Leading Edge Knowledge, skills and tools
  • Keep work pressure at a manageable level – based on our "work smarter not harder" approach
  • You focus on the important activity and manage the urgent activity through a structured prioritisation process

 

  • MOST – a method of planning and goal setting
  • POIT – using technology to work more efficiently
  • Mindset – developing a mindset of good organisation and managing pressure so it does not become stress

 

 

Oil

This giant global company operates at every phase of the energy cycle. From the earliest stages of offshore exploration to the sale of petrol at one of its 22,600 service stations, they find, recover, refine, market and sell energy and petroleum products. All levels of staff within the organisation were offered the chance to attend OnTrack's "Being more Effective" ™course.
The course helped employees learn how to clarify, focus on, and execute their highest priorities. Participants learnt how to master the skills of planning their weeks and organising their days so their time is spent on tasks that really matter. They discovered how to clearly define goals and break them down into key tasks, eliminate unnecessary activities to reduce stress, balance work and life priorities, and master information management with a proven planning system.
