We are delighted to announce that Dean Fulford, Practice Lead of Leadership Development at Stratford, will be speaking on the topic of Managing Time and Priorities on February 16 at an educational lecture offered through the Ottawa Construction Association.

    In an increasingly virtual world, how do we maximize our time and ensure we are being efficient in managing our priorities? Dean's presentation will address:

    • Communicating with distributed teams, and how this may contribute to time management challenges
    • The underlying causes of your time management issues
    • Basic strategies for improving your time effectiveness: your own work habits and how you efficiently organize work interaction
    • Approaches to reduce the “distance” between your team members

    The session is offered as part of Ottawa Construction Association's education series, which are open to OCA members and non-members. For event information and registration details, visit the OCA event page.
