Testimonials
I found the piece on prioritising work most useful – in terms of urgent and important. A great refresher, lots of new ideas and insights. This was one of the most beneficial courses I have attended. 10/10 .
Ulster BankThis was one of the most enjoyable and beneficial courses I have attended. Ten out of ten. I found the piece on prioritising work most useful – in terms of urgent and important – because I used to prioritise work depending on the duration of the task. This meant I got frustrated with long-term projects. But the course provided me with helpful tips on scheduling and on how to be assertive in managing my own time and how to prevent time being stolen from me. A great refresher, lots of new ideas and insights. Ulster Bank
