6 steps to better productivity

Effective Personal Productivity is made up of 6 carefully designed lessons, each of which opens the door to significant productivity improvements.

1. What’s productivity?
First, we help you understand what productivity is and how to benchmark your own personal productivity.

Recognising the rewards of improving productivity, we will help you change your attitude to planning and goal-setting, as well as identifying and utilising high-payoff activities to get more done.

2. Managing time
Improving your self-image, whilst developing personal and organisational goals to maximise time is the focus of the second lesson.

Once you understand how the goal-setting process works and the power of written goals, you will learn to find time to plan and set goals, as well as learning the power of affirmation and visualisation.

3. Controlling priorities
This lesson will show you how to set priorities in all areas of life to help restore balance. You’ll learn to deal with interruptions, handle emergencies and drop-in visitors as you become ever more efficient and productive.

We’ll also show you how to manage communications and importantly, you will learn how to say no.

4. Communicate better
Improved productivity requires effective communication and we’ll show how to empathise with others, clarify with questions and listen for the total message.

You’ll learn tips for speed reading, writing for impact and communicating with groups, whilst using technology efficiently and effectively.

5. Team empowerment
For those with teams to make more productive, you’ll learn to overcome the fear of change and embrace the benefits of empowerment.

Again, we will explain how to change attitudes and how to develop teams through effective delegation and the different levels available.

6. Team productivity
Finally, you will learn how to create a learning environment, to help get the most from your team.

We’ll show how to instil positive expectancy and demonstrate strategies for training, combined with efficient procedures to ensure any team will increase productivity.

"Our Sales Manager was the first to go on this programme and he immediately made some changes which led to significant improvements in performance of the sales team. Since then, myself and five others from HBT have enrolled on this course. The programme has helped us prioritise, improve internal communications and has helped me to delegate more effectively so I can focus on the strategic development of the business. I wish we'd done this years ago!"

- Zamurad Hussain (Managing Director, HBT Communications)
