Don’t stop moving forward!

Maybe this has been another one of “those” week’s for you. Or maybe you’ve been smashing records all week! Either way, a new one is just around the corner and we can all look forward to fresh new opportunities to make personal progress. Here are four thoughts to get you into a success mindset before Monday:

  1. Great Companies Obsess Over Productivity, Not Efficiency - In the coming decade, it will be critical for business leaders to adopt a productivity mindset. Instead of focusing on continuously managing the denominator, by cutting headcount, executives should identify ways to boost the numerator, and increase output.
  2. How to Make Every Week a 40-Hour Week (No Matter How Much You Have to Get Done) - Anyone can accomplish a 40-hour workweek with the right mindset and a plan. Because in the end, it’s your output—not the hours you’re in a seat—that really matters.
  3. The Risky Steps You Have to Take Today if You Want a Career You Love - Because you don’t know the outcome, taking career risks is scary. You have to get over the fear factor though if you really want to carve out a life you love, not merely tolerate.
  4. 3 Unique Paths to Improving Office Productivity - An entrepreneur doesn't necessarily have to work harder or longer to be more productive. Balance is important, and an office that promotes teamwork is one that promotes productivity.

We are in the Skills Business!

Through recruitment, training and consulting, Timeo-Performance provides solutions for increased performance of companies, teams, and individuals. As our clients are in the center of global business and often serve the APAC region, our solutions need to be sustainable in a multicultural and remote context.

Our joint venture with Akteos, the European leader in intercultural training, and partnership with digital learning solutions provider CrossKnowledge have therefore been organic and logical additions to our service. Timeo-Performance has been helping companies in APAC increase business performance since 2008 with offices in Singapore, Malaysia, and Hong Kong.

We love what we do, feel the Timeo-Performance experience!

As busy professionals, our schedules are often filled to the brim with meetings and tasks to complete. We can get so caught up with work that we might even forget our all-important lunch and power through dinner as well. Alas, we can only do so much given the 24 hours we have in a day. While time management is vital, being productive is another matter in its entirety.Enter time batching.
