Description
Studies show that office workers spend the equivalent of six weeks a year just looking for things. Add to that all the time spent trying to organize and prioritize work - it often seems amazing that a job ever gets done! Based on the internationally recognized Personal Efficiency Program (PEP), this book offers a simple and effective system for getting organized at work. Featuring the same proven techniques taught at Exxon, British Petroleum and other major corporations around the world, Gleeson's book will help to reduce managerial stress while improving performance and increasing productivity.
