Take Control of Your Time: A Seminar

The secret to getting more done is not to work longer hours.

Testimonials from past students:

Melanie’s focus on fundamental concepts in time management, instead of click-bait tips and tricks, led me realize I had a significant hole in my time and task management system. I had long term goals and short term task lists but no coherent system for connecting those time horizons with a medium term strategy. Her seminar includes suggestions for specific tools but has a strong emphasis on the underlying time-management concepts that is both refreshing and valuable!

A science professor, about the online seminar

I had read about some of the topics, but it was good to have a general overview of them and how they relate to one another…. [T]his is a good introduction to the topic.
