The model breaks down the process of managing time into these headings: managing what you do, managing where you work, managing communications, managing to work with others, and managing everyday. Skills covered include: objective setting, decision-making, problem-solving, creativity, assertiveness, listening, questioning, reading, writing, and handling paperwork and phone calls.
Management Pocketbooks publishes pocket-sized books on management skills, self-development, customer care, and all aspects of business and management. These books utilize lots of visual content (charts, diagrams and cartoons) and rely on keywords and bullet-point lists in a manner similar to a great trainers slides. Management Pocketbooks strip away all the superfluous information, the padding, and present just the key facts. It cuts down on reading and saves valuable time.
The visual content helps with understanding and, along with the many acronyms, mnemonics and other 'triggers', aids memory retention and recall.

In this way you can get to the specific bit of information you're looking for quickly and easily - ideal for a quick glance just before an important meeting, interview, presentation or telephone call.
Because they are so small, Pocketbooks have the advantage of being very portable. This encourages people to keep their copies close to hand and refer to them regularly - better, surely, than books sitting on a shelf and largely forgotten.
