When managing projects, often several at once, time management takes on a whole new dimension. It is no longer just a matter of structuring your days, but of orchestrating the short, medium, and long term while navigating through unforeseen events, dependencies, deliverables, planning errors and last-minute emergencies.
The complexity is constant. Yet, you can regain control, clarify your focus, and build more sustainable work rhythms for yourself and for your team.
This conference explores the practices that allow you to stay the course when complexity is constant. It addresses the links between project management tools and personal time management, two complementary approaches that serve very distinct functions.
The conference also covers the direct effect of the project manager’s time management on team cohesion and performance.
