Managing Time:
The Five A’s: A Scheme for Managing Time
An Proponents of effective time make some fairly major claims, such as
that it can: simplify your life; reduce stress; increase effectiveness;
increase efficiency; increase job satisfaction; increase personal and
organizational productivity; and create more ‘personal time’ for you to
use. The bottom line of these for principals is that time saved through
thoughtful time management can be used for working on what is really
important for your school and for increasing time for you and your
family. But before any benefit can accrue the issue of how time is used
must be carefully examined. One approach to doing this is through
following a scheme called the Five A’s of time management.
