Or have I got this the wrong way round?!
Are you more likely to be saying "So little time. So much to do”?
This sense of never feeling in control can be a significant source of stress.
"This course has been invaluable and has given me such a boost both personally and professionally. I have never felt so organised and unstressed in my life and leave a tidy desk at work every day. Like a juggler, I keep a few balls in the air all the time, and since starting this course, not one has hit me on the head! The coaching was great. I thought you were very insightful and picked up on things that made me think. Thank you." Kathleen Murray. Highland Carers Project.

Unlike workshops, this is a programme which is tailored to you by the integration of 1-1 telephone coaching sessions. This is essential, because T&W Management is about managing yourself. The theory is easy. You can read a book. Negotiating the barriers to implementing the theory is the real challenge. It’s a lot about replacing old habits that don’t work with new ones that do. Changing habits takes time and a willingness to explore different approaches to see what works best for you. A ‘one size fits all’ approach just doesn’t work.
It may well be that some of the time management and workload difficulties you have which would lead you to do this course would also show up in relation to the course itself (eg making time to do the modules, getting the feedback to me on time). Rather than being a problem this creates an opportunity for us to identify and address these issues as they arise.
How It Works
We start with a telephone discussion to decide when you wish to receive modules and how long you want to work with each module. This is flexible and can be changed if you find you need more time for certain modules.
The Modules are sent out by email and when you have completed a module you email me a feedback sheet which forms the basis for our next coaching session.
Cost & Booking
Course Modules + 6 x 40 minute coaching sessions £290
Additional sessions can be requested for £30 for a 30 minute session (pro rata for longer sessions).
What People Have Said About the Course :
"The course helped me to separate the really important aspects of my life from what was cluttering it up and stopping me from being as creative as I want to be and it gave me the will and confidence to sweep that clutter aside. The coaching was deeply motivating, in a quiet and gentle way, and a very powerful part of the process - partly because it keeps it personal, but also because it makes the course into a dialogue, which has been a key reason for keeping the momentum up. Thanks!" Mandy, Writer
"I would recommend this T&WM course to anyone who wants to organise their time more effectively. Not only will work become more efficient, leisure time will be improved too. There are lots of tips and exercises to enable you to do this, along with very positive feedback from Lynda which made the coaching an essential part of the course." Vivian
"This course has a much more profound impact than reading a book or going on a one day course and I am impressed by how much it gets you to change behaviour. Studying the course over a number of weeks gives you time to practice and absorb the new habits" Anna, Project Directo
