Effective professional people may achieve greater results than ineffective people of greater ability. Working hard is not enough; top professional people need to be effective.

Overview
A person with great knowledge/skills will achieve less than someone with lesser knowledge/skills, but who is significantly more effective. With pressure on time increasing, slack time has become almost non-existent. Rare skills require great effectiveness to have maximum impact. Work pressure has seen an increase in stress related disorders.

During this practical and thought-provoking course, participants will learn how to increase their personal effectiveness in handling priorities, time and stress.
