Two 90-Minute Workshops

Time Management for the Office Professional

Working as a support staff member requires multiple skills, both in organization and in responding to unpredictable events and changing priorities. How can you be both reliable and flexible when you don't control many of the demands of the work? This workshop explores the skills and practices of people who manage the work successfully.

Working for Multiple Bosses

A major challenge for office professionals often is the need to support a number of people in the organization, with the resulting multiple conflicting demands. The staff person rarely has the authority to decide among priorities, so the answer is to set up and employ ways to manage the situation effectively. This workshop provides practices to do that.

Project Management is the 21st-century model for managing complex, risky innovations to on-time outcomes within budget. Jim Milliken offers workplace-tested designs in customized formats for onsite implementation and classroom training.

Communication is the lifeblood of human organization, in small partnerships and large corporations – and the pipeline to their markets. Jim provides practical approaches to all the oral and written forms.

Personal Productivity is fundamental, and it consists of skills that can be examined, practiced and perfected. Likewise Leadership and Supervision. Jim has common-sense training designs for dozens of these essentials.
