Course Description:
Time management and organization of your space (whether that’s a desk, a classroom, office, gym, closet, or whole building) contributes to the way people experience and perceive you. It also contributes to your wellness. When you make it a habit to manage your time and your environment, you will feel less stressed and more in control. This will build your confidence and effectiveness.
