Remarks from participants

"Keep up the exercises, they are very good. Also the experience stories from participants and lecturer are very good."

Wouter de Nijs - Flanders

"Saying 'no' is not so bad! It left me with a positive feeling, eager to practice. Even more so after day 2."

Stanley Teuben - NXP Semiconductors

"My mindset has changed toward better time management. Delegating techniques are very useful. Good training, a small group works excellent. Other people's experience also very useful."

Mike Curvers - NTS group

"I would like to say how powerful the time management training has been for me now that it has been a few weeks. My overall efficiency has increased. Less stress, email is constantly up to date and meetings are prepared. My coworkers look at it with positive amazement and want to know more. Even my wife notices the difference. Sometimes I have more free time while doing more work."
