Time management for managers training
It is always possible to become more efficient in how we organise ourselves and our work.
Time management for manager training can help you to become more efficient, develop a sense of managing tasks rather than them managing you and lower stress levels.
The ITD approach to time management skills is to look for the underlying causes of time issues. We also explore behaviours that can create pressures on ourselves. The workshop focuses on each individual’s approach to work and how this can unlock opportunities to be more time efficient.
There are also a range of very straight forward tips which can have a high impact on time management skills. In our experience no single approach works for every individual. In a typical ITD workshop we work with your people to find the best solution for them, so that each participant leaves with a n umber of specific actions to improve their efficiency.

Participant reviews
Inclusive and thought provoking
I really enjoyed the course and this was helped by having Martin Chapman.
He was really engaged with us all and ensured we remained engaged throughout. I took a couple of points away from the course, that I will be working on over the next couple of months. It was very interesting listening to different management styles and experiences from the other delegates.
As the team were so engaged and we were clearly enjoying the course, I wish to course was a little longer.
Useful platform to have interactive discussions on communication and working style
Get to know yourself and those around you
Super informative and enjoyable!
Martin was a brilliant trainer on the working effectively and communication courses – I learned a lot of new techniques that I’m already putting to good use in the work place, and the overall vibe of sessions was great!
Professional Business Communication training
This class is 3 hours but it didn’t feel like it. It helped that the class is interactive and each person gets a chance to speak at one time or another. Martin did a great job keeping us engaged. I like the way he explained the topics and I genuinenly walked away with some great pointers regarding communication styles.
Martin was a great trainer!
He made the session interesting and engaging, and gave some really helpful tips for working effectively! Definitely one of the best trainers I’ve come across in sessions like this – would recommend.
