Time Management

Russel has delivered a time management and personal effectiveness program to many Hydro staff over the past few years. He is an effective instructor with an excellent background and pragmatic suggestions. His deskside coaching was particularly helpful for operationalizing the classroom concepts. I have continued to use Russel's expertise post-course - now 3 years later.

Our “Get Organized” workshop was developed and honed through coaching hundreds of business people to be more effective with one of their most important commodities – time. Paradoxically, poor organizational habits are often encouraged by the same technology that was designed to make us more effective! It is not uncommon for business people to spend most of their days swamped with e-mail, meeting requests and piles of paper. This typically results in a reduced ability to get work done, and is usually coupled with high levels of stress and even burnout.

This workshop will develop superior organizational skills by providing a simple, yet effective workflow system that is integrated with standard tools and technology such as Microsoft Outlook.
