Why should you attend?
Time is the most important subject there is. The biggest cost in a business is probably time, people’s time, wages. There are only so many hours in a working day - even if you are working long hours - so you want to spend them on the important things and let go of the little hassles, or at least spend as little time on them as possible.
This workshop will show you how you can organise your day to be able to do more, focus on the important things, such as your teams and your customers, and give you practical tips to work not harder, but smarter.
Who should attend?
