Time management is an essential skill for middle-level managers. Time management is an active process of planning how one can judiciously spend one’s time to maximize effectiveness and efficiency. Effective time management leads to faster completion of tasks which in turn results in freeing up one’s available time for other activities. Within an organization, as the manager’s time is engaged strategically to maximize revenue, effective time management by the managers leads to a reduction of wasted time and better prioritization of tasks thereby leading to better business results.

Achievement Motivation (David McClelland) refers to how any individual understands and responds to task-based situations. Of the three motivations of Power, Affiliation and Achievement – Achievement Motivation directly refers to someone’s motive to excel in any given situation.

As against traditional interviews, BEI is a dynamic form of interviewing in which the interviewee is guided to tell about the outcomes in recent business situations whilst the interviewer skilfully probes and clarifies exactly how those outcomes were achieved. Because the interviewee is recalling their actual behaviours, accurate recall is enhanced and even the most nervous interviewees are given the best chance to accurately portray evidence of their strengths and weaknesses. Behavioural Event Interviewing (BEI) has been shown to have approximately 50% more predictive validity than traditional interviewing.

Effective teamwork in an organization increases the organization’s overall effectiveness by delivering high-quality business results. Effectiveness of a team lies in the spirit in which tasks are shared by team members, collective beliefs are established, commonly adhered values are practised by them as behaviours and how they agree upon the common goals to chase. Building an effective team is similar to programming the members to understand and appreciate that high-performance teamwork is an outcome of each of their personal responsibility, a sense of oneness with collaborative energy, synergistic actions, which lead to results.
