Getting More Done in Less Time - 40 Time Management Techniques that Work: with Phil Gott

Your firm and your clients want you to do more, more quickly, and in less time. No wonder people working in law firms – not only lawyers but business professionals too – are under so much pressure. It can seem relentless and can too easily impinge on life outside work and wellbeing.

If this strikes a chord for you and your colleagues, the good news is that you can do something about it.

The course can be streamed live to your desktop, laptop or phone or you can watch the recording whenever or wherever you want. In either case you will receive a recording of the course.

Prices: £199 + VAT for the first delegate. This is a per organisation price, so up to 10 of your colleagues from the same organisation can participate at no extra charge, even if they are viewing it from a different location or at a different time. So for example, if there are 10 of you the cost per delegate would be just £19.50 each.

Following this course you will have a practical and implementable plan to get you more focused and more productive. Together we will go through a logical process, examining 40 proven tips and techniques in 8 major categories:

1. Focusing on the right things (using fuzzy goals and SMART objectives)

2. Standardising repetitive tasks (using templates, documented processes and automation)

3. Knowing yourself and how you work best (recognising when are you at your best and increasing your energy levels when you are not)

4. Techniques for overcoming procrastination (starting by identifying what’s causing it)

5. Using dead time (by multi-tasking, and using waiting time and travel time)

6. Working efficiently (using AI, or applying ‘time-boxing’ techniques or the ‘pomodoro method’)

7. Managing your workspace (by reorganising your office, your desk and your desktop)

8. Managing other people (by managing upwards, avoiding interruptions, and saying ‘no’ in ways that are not offensive).

There is no single standard solution, and not all the techniques will be right for you but, during the course, you will identify those that will make most difference for you and a plan to implement some right away so that you can benefit immediately.

The course will be led by Phil Gott of Firm Academy, who specialises in helping law firms and other professional practices get the best from their partners and staff. Phil is a founder member of the Professional Speakers Association and has been voted Trainer of the Year by the Legal Education & Training Group. He authored Managing People in a Law Firm in The Law Society’s Practice Management Handbook and has also written a White Paper on Talent Management in professional service firms. Phil’s clients range from ‘magic circle’ firms to regional and single-office firms both in the UK and overseas.
