Time & Stress Management

Time & Stress, became an epidemic dilemma of today’s workforce globally, with the increasing workplace demands, limitation of recourses, meeting higher expectations, meeting deadlines, managing personal home demands, and the embedded emotions of insecurity. Moreover, because reducing stress requires proper time management ~ two factors that are interrelated ~ this online workshop is designed to provide practical solutions and interesting insights!   

This unique program has been developed throughout deploying Emotional Intelligence and the incorporation of self-reflection & revealing assessments tools, practical planning tools for better time management, and interactive stress relief and management activities. 

Because 20% of our Actions produce 80% of our Results ~ Planning through a to-do-list without mastering the Urgent/Important Matrix, will simply be a plan to fail! 

Because We Confuse Movement with Progress ~ SMART Goals Setting is nothing but a must!
