Manager Session

Time Management Training for Managers

Develop sharper prioritisation, better delegation, and healthier boundaries around how you and your team spend your most valuable resource — and build working habits that protect both performance and wellbeing.

Why This Matters

Manager overload is one of the most common and costly problems in UK workplaces — and it flows downstream into teams

When managers are stretched thin, reactive, and unable to protect focused time, those habits ripple through their teams. Poor time management at a management level drives stress, missed deadlines, and eventual burnout across the organisation.

89%
say poor time management directly affects their team
Almost nine in ten managers report that their own time management challenges have a direct impact on their team’s ability to work effectively — confirming that this is a leadership issue, not just a personal one.
23%
of manager time is spent in ineffective meetings
Research suggests that nearly a quarter of management time is absorbed by meetings that could be shorter, less frequent, or avoided entirely — leaving less time for the work and people that actually need attention.

Equipping managers with better time and priority management reduces the downstream costs of burnout, underperformance, and reactive fire-fighting. (Deloitte, 2022)
What You’ll Learn

Tools to prioritise smarter, delegate with confidence, and protect what matters most

  • Use proven prioritisation frameworks — including the Eisenhower Matrix and energy management principles — to distinguish high-value work from noise
  • Delegate effectively to develop team capability and free yourself from tasks that don’t need your direct involvement
  • Reclaim meeting time — setting clearer agendas, reducing unnecessary attendance, and ending meetings that could be an email
  • Manage digital interruption and context-switching — protecting blocks of focused work time for yourself and modelling this for your team
  • Set and maintain boundaries around your time — including saying no constructively without damaging relationships or reputations
  • Understand the link between time management and burnout — and how the habits you model set the standard for your whole team

How It Works

How Time Management Training for Managers is delivered

Tailored to your organisation’s specific context — not a generic awareness session delivered off the shelf.

1

Tailored Onboarding

We begin by understanding your organisation’s working culture, meeting habits, and the specific time pressures your managers face — so the session addresses real problems, not hypothetical ones.

2

Training Delivery

An evidence-based, highly practical session delivered onsite or online. Managers leave with tools they can apply to their working week immediately — not just awareness that time management matters.

3

Sustained Impact

Post-training planning templates and resources help managers build sustainable routines over time — so the improvement is lasting rather than a brief post-training burst of good intentions.
