Time Actions

Find out why the things people want spend time on can clash with expectations - and how to resolve conflicts

It takes more than an understanding of "time management" to understand why things do and don't happen on time.

While part of Promana's Time Actions assessment deals with those practices, there's more to our relationship with time than you might think.

With the insights gained through completing this assessment, people find they develop a more holistic understanding about exactly how the things they want to do with their time can be in conflict with the things they must use their time for.

In today's fast-paced world, managing the dimension of time has become essential to ensuring productivity and success in so many endeavours. But understanding the delicate balance between expectations placed on us, and our individual preferences, can be a challenge.

Rising to that challenge, the Time Actions assessment explores two sets of behaviours: the first six factors relating to how and why time management creates expectations, and the other six relating to the ways people structure their time, or in other words, their preferences for spending time.

The goal of the assessment is to provide insight into how to optimise productive, efficient, and effective use of time bwithin group situations, and why these attempts often fail due to a conflict between time management practices and personal satisfaction.
