CHRO SA is offering two-day workshops on how to become a productivity ninja.
Sometimes people think that they need to work harder to do better but that isn't always the case. In fact, working smart is better than working hard because working smart means being effective and focusing on the results you're after, rather than the process involved in achieving them. The biggest mistake that people make is that they confuse activity with effectiveness, because one can stay busy for a whole day without accomplishing anything important.
‘Work smarter, not harder’ is a mantra that many professionals are familiar with but seldom get right because they have so much on their plate, that their work is never truly done. There is always more to do and there is always some kind of crisis or deadline around the corner. Luckily, CHRO SA will be running training on this particular topic. Dutch productivity guru Marcel van den Berg, the Director for Western Europe at Think Productive, will be running two-day workshops on how to become a productivity ninja. The workshops will focus on improving your thinking and decision-making so as to assist professionals with how to become more productive and add more value to their organisations.
The workshops will also guide attendees on how to prioritise actions or take the practical steps required to become more productive. Because, ultimately, productivity is not only about ‘time management’; it now also involves thinking about how to manage attention and focus, projects, actions, choices, and habits.
The two-day workshops will be happening from 19 September 2018 in Johannesburg and from 25 September 2018 in Cape Town.
