Trainer's viewpoint - Lesley Wilson

Time management is a perpetual problem for executives, regardless of their seniority.  Most of us have got into bad time management habits without realising and with the best of intentions.  This is the most popular topic I am asked to present on, and the one that can make the biggest difference to people’s well-being and performance.
