Design Matters, Results Matter, Recognition Follows
Time is becoming ever more significant in competition. People are even talking about time leadership as a central strategy towards gaining competitive advantages.
Therefore we must, more than ever, learn to optimize an effective and efficient use of our time in order to stand up to the ever increasing personal demands made upon us.
Thus, for instance, the normal working day of a manager is on the average divided into 200 to 300 activities. Conferences, phone calls and discussions, etc… Many activities are not planned for, but arise in a spontaneous and unpredictable way. Often this happens outside one’s office. One can often lose one’s larger perspective this way.
In addition, there are the demands made from the direct environment of the business itself. Daily consultation with coworkers and colleagues from the team or the division also require time. TDI offers a valuable support in this regard with its Management System and its seminar package.
In order to constantly realize maximal usefulness for the client and do justice to what is demanded of us and our concept, we are continually checking our quality.
With this in mind, we arranged for an empirical examination regarding our Management System, including the introductory seminar at the Institute for Personnel and Organizational Research at the German Army University in Munich, with Professor Dr. R. Marr and P. Seisl as project directors. This was undertaken in order to answer the following questions: where does our system increase efficiency? And to what degree? Where might weak points be? What could we improve in the future?
The results were extremely positive. The average new user in our study experienced an 18.4% increase in productivity with a corresponding 13% decrease in overall stress.
