An Intensive 5-day Training Course
Setting Priorities, Time Management & Stress Reduction
Managing Stress & Pressure at Work

Course Introduction
Achieving success begins with a structured approach to goal-setting and time management. Successful individuals know what they need to accomplish, how to do it, and follow a clear plan to reach their goals. Developing skills in time management, stress reduction, and setting priorities is crucial to maximize productivity and add value within any organization. Unfortunately, time—a highly valuable resource—is often mismanaged, resulting in high-stress levels and missed objectives that hinder overall performance.
Many professionals may overlook the impact of stress from both internal and external workplace pressures. With rising stress-related costs affecting employers, it has become essential for organizations to support employees through setting priorities and time management training courses and provide strategies to effectively manage high-pressure situations.
