If you oversee medical learners, integrated behavioral health trainees or staff, and/or simply struggle with your own time management skills, this presentation will provide you with both background knowledge and practical tips/tricks to help increase effectiveness at the time management skills needed to successfully juggle the many different demands of working in healthcare.
