Personal development

Manage your energy not your time

1 hour

Summary

In our ever-evolving professional and personal lives, the demands on our time are constantly multiplying, accompanied by increasing expectations of what we can achieve. Burn out is at an all time high.

To improve performance, productivity and resilience, a holistic approach is needed. Time management tools offer valuable insights but they are inherently limited. The key is to focus on energy.

In this webinar, Mary will explain how mastering personal energy can radically improve performance, motivation and productivity.

Based on the work of iPECTM and Loehr & Schwartz, the new course offered by IMechE L&D: Manage your energy not time explores in detail, the principle of our four key energy sources: Physical, Mental, Spiritual and Emotional.

The course enables delegates to develop an understanding of the way their own energy sources work and interact with one other. Using this knowledge, they can go on to develop a formula that they can use in their daily life to optimise and expand their energy.

During the webinar, Mary will explain more about the personal energy management approach and what delegates can expect from the “Manage Your Energy, Not Your Time” training course.

Who should attend?

Anyone who is juggling demanding work responsibilities with significant personal commitments, such as family care.

You may experience increasing fatigue, stress, and burnout due to an overwhelming workload and lack of time to relax or engage in healthy activities. Despite recognising the need for better habits, you struggle to manage your energy, leading to poor diet, minimal exercise, and reliance on other unhealthy habits to cope.

This situation highlights the need for energy management techniques over traditional time management to address the cumulative strain on your professional and personal lives.

How will I benefit?

You will develop the awareness and skills that enable you to understand and master your energy. This will allow you to have more impact professionally and to be more productive with less stress and fatigue.
