Time Management for Tenneco

17.08.2010

I am at the Sarovar Portico, Hosur. I have just finished conducting a workshop on Time Management for the executives of Tenneco, Hosur. Many insights on Time Management were passed on through activities and case studies. One participant pointed out that Time Management is about Discipline and the Art of saying No.

Mr. Vivekanandan, the HR Head, who attended the program said participants of corporate in house programs can be classified as follows:

• People who come because they have been sent for training. They will respond well if the training is good and entertaining.
• The Time Passers who see it as time away from work.
• The Effective learners who come prepared with queries and are interactive. They attempt to implement some of the techniques learnt and will stand testimony to the efficacy of training for future programmes.

I found the group to be entirely of the third category based on the interaction and questions asked.
