Time Management Tools

In our last post, we looked at common habits that can keep you from working efficiently and suggested ways to reduce the distractions that waste your time. If you are an alumni of The Breakthrough Coach, you have access to a set of tools you can use to take your efficiency to new levels and successfully implement what you have learned in our program. Read on for a brief overview of the resources our graduates can access anytime online.

Forms and Guides

After signing in to the Graduate Portal, click the Client Forms tab. You’ll find the following and much more:

Scheduling Workbook: Our Breakthrough Scheduling™ methodology provides what others miss, such as awareness of a typical day’s activities and workflow; an accurate presentation of how people really view their time; and a thoughtful process to handle anomalies. The workbook covers the entire day, from a procedure for daily arrival to schedules for standard meetings, coaching time, personal activity time, and much more. Calendars for each segment of the day are included to help you maximize the effectiveness of this Fundamental Practice.

Accountability Log: This simple form helps you track who is responsible for what task and by when.

Integrity Checklist: Build trust by strengthening your ability to give and keep your word instead of overpromising and under-delivering. The Integrity Checklist is designed to help you focus your attention on the specific actions you want to practice every day and recognize what is and isn’t working.
