Are You Suffering From Too Much To Do & Not Enough Time To Do It?
Research studies indicate that as much as 40-60% of our daily workdays is wasted due to unnecessary, unproductive interruptions.
In 2005 Basex research stated $588 billion is lost annually to interruptions and this number would increase by 12% per year if gone unchecked.
Managing projects requires a great deal of planning and time. But where does your time go?
In this webinar, you will learn about the source of your interruptions and the five time loss factors that steal your time away, how to stop them, and how to use the time recovered to increase your and your team’s productivity and efficiency.
Ask yourself the following:
- Are you often interrupted while trying to complete tasks?
- Who interrupts you the most? (selection external clients, internal clients, managers, colleagues, friends & family, other)
- On average, how many times a day are you interrupted?
- What is the average amount of time it takes you to resolve each interruption?
- Do time management issues and tough deadlines manifest in distress? Lack of self-esteem and Job dissatisfaction?
- Is it often difficult to know which tasks to work on and what the priorities are?

Establishing a PMO (Project/Program/Portfolio Management Office) is considered to be a best practice approach to improving the value an organization can receive from its project investments.
Why is it then, that a study, conducted in 2005, of 750 organizations worldwide indicated that over 75% of organizations that set up a PMO shut it down within three years because it did not demonstrate any added value?
Solution Q invites you to attend a webinar where you will learn key reasons why so many PMOs fail, and gain some valuable knowledge of the critical success factors required to ensure the survival of your PMO.
Who should attend this webinar?
