Description
This is the first of five courses on time management methods. I highly recommend enrolling to my masters course but if you are only interested in selected parts of this course, feel free to enrol to just these course parts one by one.
This first course of my time management series of courses covers the following aspects of time management:
Distinguish between self management and time management to focus on the relevant things in your life instead of the currently urgent ones.
Apply To-Do lists and learn how to structure them to collect tasks (Brainstorming phase)
Apply Mind-Mapping to structure your brainstormed tasks that reveals missing tasks that you need to add to get an almost complete list of all project-related tasks
Who this course is for:
- Employees with a stressful professional life
- Team leaders who want to introduce a collaborative task collection system in their teams
- People with multiple jobs: main job, part time job, family, club ... Multiple roles can be a challenge sometimes
- People who are interested in personality development, self-management and time management

As an entrepreneur in IT, computer scientist and thanks to my experience in teaching and research at university, I collected a wide range of valuable knowledge that I am glad to share with you today.
My research interest is the field of software customisability, adaptivity and accessibility with a strong focus on user interaction with robotics (human-robot interaction as part of the human-computer interaction research community). Thus, I am currently working on strategies that help engineering assistants robots for people with special needs, e.g. the elderly or people with impairments. As robots are continuously advancing regarding their hardware, the software side is more and more becoming the bottleneck in this field which motivates me even more to work in that area. One crucial aspect that stands out here because of a very active research community, is the need for powerful voice interaction interfaces and systems that are able to really understand their users. Overall, a very dynamic research area with super motivating and interesting challenges.
