Core Value God looks for men and women who are faithful stewards of finances, time, and spiritual gifts in their personal lives and leadership with the result that people are reached with the Gospel Teaching Objective Participants will examine how to utilize their time in a more productive and effective way in order to reach their God-given goals. Introduction God gives each leader various gifts for ministry. God also provides financial resources and opportunities to serve. All of God’s provisions are connected to the reality that God is the source of all we have, and we will be held accountable for each aspect of our lives. Of everything God has given to us, time is perhaps the most perishable and wasted. It is completely spent every day, and once it is spent, it cannot be recovered. Therefore, the commitment to being a good steward of time is a necessity for every leader.

The Passing of Life What is Time What Is Time? It is the passing of life Do you remember what you did yesterday between 10:00 and 12:00? Whatever your answer is, those events are part of your past and cannot be lived again. They are gone forever

Most Valuable Resource What Is Time? It is your most valuable resource It is unique, because unlike other resources, time cannot be saved or recovered.

Time Does not Discriminate TIME IS What is Time Time Does not Discriminate The Same for Everyone What Is Time? It is the same for everyone Time does not discriminate. Leaders and followers, organized or haphazard, lazy or hard-working, each has 24 hours a day.

Time Robbers What Robs Our Time? Thirty leaders identified their biggest time robbers. The most frequently mentioned were: Procrastination. “The greatest time wasted is the time getting started,” observed Dawson Trotman, the founder and first president of The Navigators. Leaders often put off starting something until it is too late to finish it. Poor Personal Planning and Scheduling. A reactive lifestyle that doesn’t plan ahead for the future will rob us of valuable time. Interruptions by People without Appointments. Some people interpret visibility as availability resulting in interruptions. Poor Delegation. Leaders are often a “one-man-band” and can end up overwhelmed. Poor Use of the Telephone. Leaders should ask, “Can this call wait until later, and what do I want to accomplish by taking this call?” Cell phones have made it even more difficult today. Lack of Concern for Good Time Management. If a leader is consistently late, that will be what is expected from them. Lack of Clear Priorities. Haphazardly running after different tasks without a clear priority and plan to achieve goals will result in a burned-out and ineffective leader.

JESUS Biblical Foundation Biblical Foundation—Jesus, the Model Continues on next slide

Jesus knew his time was limited As long as it is day, we must do the work of Him who sent me. Night is coming when no one can work. (John 9:4) Jesus knew that His time was limited. In John 9:4, Jesus makes this clear by saying, “As long as it is day, we must do the works of Him who sent me. Night is coming, when no one can work.” Continues on next slide

Jesus never lost sight of his purpose I have brought you glory on earth by completing the work you gave me to do. John 17:4 Jesus never lost sight of His purpose. In John 17:4, Jesus prays, “[Father] I have brought Continues on next slide

Jesus understood that there is a right time to do the important things Don’t you have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest. John 4:35 Jesus understood that there is a right time to do the important things In John 4:35, Jesus says, “Don’t you have a saying, ‘It’s still four months until harvest’? I tell you, open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest.”

BALANCED PRIORITIES The essence of effective time management Conclusion Of all that God has given you, time is probably the most perishable and wasted. It is completely spent every day and can never be recovered; therefore, making a commitment to being a good steward of time is a necessity for every leader. Different cultures see and deal with time differently. As a Christian leader, you must carefully examine your use time and how you follow the example of Jesus. The essence of effective time management is to organize and execute around balanced priorities.

Matrix The Time Management Accomplishing More without Working Harder The essence of effective time management is to organize our time and execute our work around balanced priorities. In the everyday practice of leadership, it is a matter of tracking common activities we perform and organizing them in order of priority. Stephen Covey developed a simple and practical model for accomplishing more by determining the level of priority of our activities. The key is to understand two words or factors that define any activity we do:

URGENCY Accomplishing More without Working Harder Urgency. Our activities can be divided into urgent and non-urgent. An urgent activity usually means it requires immediate attention; it is now. It is usually visible. Urgent issues press on us, and often they are popular with others. They might even be fun to do. On the other side of the spectrum are activities that do not demand our immediate Attention.

IMPORTANCE Accomplishing More without Working Harder Importance. Activities can be important or not. If something is important, it contributes to your mission, values, and high priority goals. It has to do with results. Unimportant activities are those that do not necessarily contribute to our vision.

THE MATRIX 1 HIGH URGENCY HIGH IMPORTANCE 2 LOW URGENCY 3 HIGH URGENCY LOW IMPORTANCE 4 LOW URGENCY LOW IMPORTANCE THE MATRIX The Time Management Matrix The two variables above are placed in a diagram (a matrix with four quadrants). Activities are divided into high or low importance and high and low urgency. Each of the four following slides will reveal one quadrant of the matrix. Feel free to toggle back and forth between slides to explain the different behaviors. Each slide is set to automatically highlight one quadrant with behaviors.

Deadline-driven Projects Crises Pressing Problems Deadline-driven Projects 2 3 4 Leadership Activities The following matrix shows common leadership activities according to urgency and importance. Effective Use of Time Our natural tendency is to spend most of our time on urgent issues because they demand immediate action. The problem is that those are not necessarily important (quadrant 1). Research shows most managers spend the majority of their time in quadrants 1 and 3. Leaders who are effective stewards of time spend most of their time and energy in quadrant 2. Each of the four slides will reveal one quadrant of the matrix. Feel free to toggle back and forth between slides to explain the different behaviors. Each slide is set to automatically highlight one quadrant with behaviors. These notes will repeat for each slide QUADRANT 1 ACTIVITIES
