The effective management of their own time is one of a Field Leaders greatest challenges and is often the root cause of their greatest failures. Construction productivity experts have known for many years that journeyman productivity has a direct correlation to a foreman’s effectiveness. A Field Leader’s effectiveness is also directly correlated to how efficiently and wisely they use their own time. Great time management is always difficult for a Field Leader…but it’s not impossible. The most effective Field Leaders have learned the tricks, methods, techniques, and habits that must be put in place and then constantly improved upon to ensure the most efficient and effective usage of their time. In this session, the instructor will cover many specific methods and practices for improving the efficiency and the overall effectiveness of a Field Leader. Among the topics to be discussed and examined are the following: time ownership (valuing, guarding, protecting), managing visitors, knowing how and when to say yes or no, setting smart goals, calendar driven, priority driven, list driven, effective delegation, meeting management, quiet hour, phone management, email management, and creating your own personal system.
