Okay, so what are we going to talk about in this particular podcast?
Well, today we're going to talk about time and particularly time management.
Of course, what could be easier, you would say, yes?
And I often wonder why people can't manage their time better,
why perhaps they can't turn up on time for a lesson or they can't turn up on time for a meeting.
As an Englishman, time is very important.
We get very upset when people don't turn up on time and we're left waiting.
But some people in some jurisdictions don't mind whether they're late or don't mind whether other people are late.
But other people like to prioritise their time and they feel that their time is so precious that if it's wasted,
it's a lost opportunity.
We're going to talk about verbs related to time management.
When you're doing staff reviews or you're having your own review in your company,
time management comes up time and time again about somebody's failings or weaknesses.
