Definition

time management: time keeping, organization of time, efficiency, making the most of one's day noun
I need to improve my time management skills. I am so unorganized and it means I don't get as much work done as I could.

Examples

  • "(Note – This average is poorly indicative of Mr. Oléré's time management."
  • "Time management is essential to high-level executives, and I want to know about your timetable."
  • "Miss Stake will have some questions about your work habits, time management and job responsibilities."
  • "Thanks to this position, I acquired diplomatic, public speaking, organizational, and time management skills."
  • "Time management (you may not want to tell Miss Stake that you sometimes spend several hours a day in telephone conversations with your bookie)."
Exercise 1
Fiona writes that the average number of hours Horatio spends at work each day .
Fiona writes that the average number of hours Horatio spends at work each day does not accurately represent his irregular weekly schedule.
does not accurately represent his irregular weekly schedule: This is the best choice here. Fiona writes: "This average is poorly indicative of Mr. Oléré's time management". She then copies a schedule of a sample week of Horatio's arrival and departure times for the office. We see that his average is not accurate because Horatio works sometimes only two hours a day, and sometimes twelve.
is far below the number of hours he actually works: Fiona writes simply that average number of hours Horatio works per day (9.5) is not accurate, or representative his time management. She is not making a statement about how much work he is actually doing.
is slightly higher than the number of hours he actually works: Fiona writes simply that average number of hours Horatio works per day (9.5) is not accurate, or representative his time management. She is not making a quantitative or qualitative statement about how much work he is actually doing.
is a poor, but accurate estimate of his weekly schedule: In fact, Fiona implies that the average is not at all accurate.
