Helping you perform more powerfully at work
“ I thoroughly enjoyed all aspects of this training course.
The learning was very practical and has given me tools that I can implement in my day
to day work. The course has been a real eye-opener to my own abilities, strengths, weaknesses and the action I need to take to become a better manager.”

Matters
Julia will be running her acclaimed ‘Time Matters’ programme on October 21st (morning), at the Burlington Hotel, Dublin 4.
The Burlington was the venue for Julia’s first ‘Time Matters’ programme last November. Since then, the programme has received wide acclaim for its simplicity, practicality and impact.
NOT JUST A COURSE – A SIX WEEK PROGRAMME
Changing the way that you manage your time is about much more than just learning new skills or operating a complicated time management system; it’s about replacing habits that no longer serve you with powerful new habits that help you to make the most of your time both inside and outside work.
That’s why your learning will start before the workshop begins. All participants will be sent a pre-course workbook which will help them to collect valuable data for use on the course and to reflect on how they are using their time.
More than anything else, managing your time is about managing the stress of choice. You will always have too much to do and not enough time within which to do it. At the workshop, participants will go through a series of exercises which will help them to discard unproductive ways of making decisions and replace them with powerful decision-making strategies.
After the workshop, Julia will stay in touch with participants via a series of carefully timed weekly emails. Each participant is also invited to participate in a 1:1 coaching phone call with Julia where individual challenges can be discussed.
Course content includes:
And last but not least
Participants will receive:
Price:
The price for this programme including the pre-course work, attendance at the workshop, workshop materials, post-course follow-up and 1:1 coaching session is €299 per person.

Your goals may be SMART
- but are they clever?
Aligning effort to strategy
This article appeared in the March ezine of the Institute of Directors in Ireland. I notice that recently there is a resurgence in interest in performance management so I wrote this article ‘Your goals may be SMART – but are they clever?’ because with my interesting ‘window-cleaner’ view of organisations, I often see SMART goals driving crazy behaviour…

Looking for Inspiration?
... Listen!
Where your attention goes,
your energy flows
I am constantly amazed by the stories that I hear from participants on training courses. I meet people who are resourceful, creative, brave. This article ‘Looking for inspiration? Listen…’ was published in the Spring ‘09 Training and Development, the quarterly magazine of the Irish Institute for Training and Development. I also take the opportunity to poke a little fun at myself (and, possibly, trainers in general).
