Bensong Bensong (2015) reported that Evidence of the significance of time in our life is very apparent
in such common statements as “A tick of a clock is never regained” (p.108).Which implies that time
never waits for anyone hence it is important to utilize time effectively in order to excel performance and
maintain healthy lifestyle. This report gives highlight on importance of acquiring effective time
management techniques.
There is a very thin line between performers and non performers; one who utilizes his time
pragmatically epitomizes success. Reference to various researches I have identified techniques such as
prioritizing and planning tasks, punctuality, cultivating productive habits, scheduling methods, ability to
say no which will help to stay on top of asks and get more done in less time. Individual can manage their
tasks by arranging them as per the importance and urgency.
This report covers the importance of time management and how it will contribute to performance during
MBA program. Further I have explicated the results from my assessment on the ability of managing time
effectively. The results from that assessment illustrates that I have very high ability of managing time
effectively but results does not reflect on my ability. Hence on the basis of my assessment I have
identified some techniques in order to overcome my time management skills.
