Know Thy Time: Peter Drucker’S Strategy To Become More Effective

I love this book so much that we once spent an entire episode of "Seeking Wisdom" editing it and revealing the first five management lessons that Drucker mentioned. You can listen to the full episode below or continue scrolling through the lessons.

This tutorial is about how to make the most of the time you have. Time is your rare commodity, and if you don't manage it well, nothing else can be handled properly. Any successful leader knows that managing your time is not something you do permanently.

In order to manage your time effectively and to make room for the most important things, you need to know, not just believe, that you are making the most of your time. Drucker wrote that the way to gain value and efficiency lies in being able to use your time. Drucker pointed out that most people do not know where their time is going and can not manage their time without knowing what they are doing.

The first step to effective leadership is to write down the exact amount of time you spend each day. Therefore, the first step towards the efficiency of an officer is to record the actual use of time. Successful leaders record the time spent in real-time and then review their results and performance weekly or monthly to see where they are (or) using their time.

Successful people are in control of their destiny. If you find that your last days are far from over, you need to improve the way you manage your time. To stay active, you need to constantly check and manage your time.

If you have a short time (15-30 minutes each) or are constantly interrupted by phone calls, emails, or partners, you will not be productive or successful. Therefore, you need to combine your free time into larger pieces, which will give you enough time for distraction and focus. The third step in managing your time (after analyzing and reducing time), according to Drucker, is to make the most of the little time you have left (your free time for important activities that have a huge impact on your productivity). companies)...

Systematic time management allows you to get the less productive work you need to get rid of. Instead of going home and dealing with unfinished business, Drucker recommends finding a more effective way to deal with these things. Drucker’s next step, after completing non-productive tasks, is to decide which productive jobs and opportunities are prioritized - the right jobs to focus on at the same time - and non-priorities, things you don’t do.

The second tendency to work well is to focus, which Drucker describes as focusing on a few important things and doing one at a time. It works best to solve a problem by practicing it for a short time.

Set aside time for two-hour activities that you know you need to complete this week - you can just wait and find out. Recording time Know where you spent Time Manage time Delete tasks that should not be performed. If a manager spends more than 1/10 of his or her time resolving personal conflicts, the number of employees is likely to be much higher.

Drucker believes that a proud team, when people spend a lot of time-solving communication problems and various conflicts between people, saves a lot of time. Drucker warns: I have never met a manager who is always very good at doing more than two tasks at once. Decision-making is only the responsibility of the leader and usually takes only a small amount of his time. They know that the most time-consuming step is not to make a decision, but to apply it.

Successful people do things first. They only do one thing at a time (and end up taking much less time than those who try to achieve many goals at once). So they give of their time and energy to do one thing at a time and put the first thing first. Top executives rarely have a quarter of their working time actually available to them and found in important issues, issues they donate, issues they pay for.

That is why we must not waste our time if we want to work well and achieve anything. That doesn't mean we should not spend our time with hobbies, friends, and family (although that success or productivity is controversial). We need to know where our time is and completely get rid of everything that hinders our production. The purpose of all of this is to know how much time we have to give.

When we start with what we need to do, instead of having the time we have, we become so busy that we realize that what we have to do in a short time is over. For it to work properly, each information technician must be able to manage time blocks large enough. According to Drucker, a small increase in time does not help. We cannot write a report for 15 minutes a day. Drucker believes that slowing downtime doesn't help - you can't write 15-minute reports every day.

Drucker explains that there will always be good ideas from the moment to bring life. Managing your time, setting priorities, and making effective decisions are some of the practical topics that Drucker talks about from a new perspective. This book is an important guide for anyone striving to be a successful leader. This book is old and contains everything a manager needs in order to grow and lead successfully.

Yes, there are many other comic books about management and leadership, but they are all based on this book. These are the first five principles in Peter Drucker's old book Leadership and Management, A Successful Leader. There are five steps to the heart of a successful career, which include managing time, choosing different contributions to the organization, increasing strength, setting proper priorities, and integrating everything into making solid decisions.
