Training Methodology

The Oxford Management Centre training course employs a variety of interactive and experiential learning methods to ensure participants gain practical insights they can immediately apply in their roles:

  • Interactive Lectures: Expert-led sessions provide theoretical knowledge combined with real-world examples.
  • Group Discussions: Participants engage in collaborative discussions to share experiences and learn from peers.
  • Hands-On Exercises: Practical activities simulate real-life scenarios where participants practice prioritization, delegation, and deadline management.

This blended methodology ensures participants not only understand the concepts but also develop the confidence and skills to implement them effectively.

Organisational Impact

Organizations can anticipate measurable improvements, including:

  • 35% improvement in team satisfaction scores related to workload distribution and role clarity, contributing to lower turnover rates (typically reducing attrition by 15-20% in high-pressure departments) and significant recruitment cost savings.
  • 20% reduction in overtime hours, while maintaining or improving productivity, supporting cost efficiency and employee well-being initiatives, with a clear return on training investment.

 

Additionally, organizations often experience enhanced cross-departmental collaboration, more accurate project forecasting, and increased adaptability during periods of change or crisis. The standardized prioritization framework established in this course fosters alignment across teams and departments, creating long-term organizational coherence and efficiency.

Personal Impact

Participants will experience meaningful personal development as they refine essential skills for managing their professional responsibilities:

  1. Lower Stress Levels – Implementing effective time management techniques and prioritization strategies helps reduce stress associated with demanding workloads.

  4. Career Growth Opportunities – Strong organizational skills position managers for leadership roles and career advancement within their organizations.
  5. Higher Job Satisfaction – The ability to manage priorities efficiently fosters a greater sense of accomplishment and fulfillment in daily work.

 

This transformation empowers managers to maximize their professional potential while maintaining a healthy balance between work responsibilities and personal well-being.

Who Should Attend?

This Managing Multiple Tasks, Priorities & Deadlines training course is ideal for:

  • Mid-level and senior managers juggling multiple projects and team responsibilities, particularly those overseeing diverse portfolios or cross-functional initiatives requiring complex stakeholder management.
  • Newly promoted managers transitioning to broader oversight roles who need to rapidly develop systems for handling expanded responsibilities while maintaining excellence in delivery.
  • Project managers coordinating complex initiatives with interdependent timelines, especially those working in matrix organizations with competing authority structures and resource allocation challenges.
