Berkshire Entrepreneurs Network (BEN)Berkshire Entrepreneurs Network
January Meeting On Time Management
The Berkshire Entrepreneurs Network’s first monthly meeting of the new year will be an interactive seminar about time management, “For the New Year: Take Time to Make Time,” presented by Andrea Feldman, Professional Organizer and Time Management Consultant. The meeting will be held on Monday, January 26 at the Gateways Inn, 51 Walker Street, Lenox, from 5:30 to 7:30 pm. All attendees will be eligible for a drawing of a $25 gift certificate for dinner at the Gateways Inn. There is no charge for first time guests.
“Time management is about organizing, and getting organized is a process. A task on your ‘to do’ list that isn’t scheduled is a job not likely to happen. Taking the time to organize and plan is essential to creating more time,” says Andrea.
Andrea Feldman brings more than 25 years of management experience to her organizing and time management services and seminars. She holds a specialist certificate in working with the chronically disorganized from the National Study Group on Chronic Disorganization and is a member of the National Association for Professional Organizers.
