Course overview

What Is Time Management for Leaders?

Time management for leaders means steering your own hours, and your team’s, towards the most valuable work while requests keep arriving. Leaders on this course find out how their days are really spent, rank tasks by urgency and importance, plan each week, break the habit of putting things off, protect their focus and delegate so everyone concentrates on what counts.

Immersive workshops, discussions and hands-on exercises have participants examine their own diaries, triage real to-do lists and reshape a working week around the pressures that leaders in Belarus deal with.

From executives in large companies to entrepreneurs running start-ups, leaders across Belarus work on their own to-do lists and diaries during the course, and leave with routines that hold up when demands keep coming and priorities shift, plus peers who help keep them accountable.

Why it matters

Why Time Management Matters in Belarus

Belarus is a nation steeped in history, and its organisations are working hard to grow. Their leaders face constant demands and shifting priorities, so knowing what to tackle first, and what to hand over, decides how much really gets done.

  • Competing demands

    Requests always outnumber the hours available, so deciding what not to do is a core leadership skill.

  • Focus on strategy

    Hours lost to firefighting are hours not spent setting direction.

  • Teams follow the leader

    The way a leader schedules, runs meetings and hands out work shapes the rhythm of the team.

  • Sustainable workloads

    Leaders in Belarus who manage time well stay effective without burning out.

The Knowles leadership approach

From Insight to Impact

Participants start by finding out where their hours go and finish with a weekly routine that keeps them on their priorities: six steps they can repeat at the start of every week.

  3. 3. PlanWhen will it get done?
  4. 4. ProtectWhat must I say no to?
  5. 5. ShareWho else should do it?
  6. 6. ReviewDid my week deliver?
