The Time Bandits: May 2011
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Monday, 23 May 2011. The Mentalist seems to have an avid dislike of pen and paper! There’s a firm belief that “keeping it all up here” is a much better approach to planning and staying organised. There’s a perception that writing things down can be too restrictive and might block any creative flow that might be going on. Maybe the Mentalist likes to feel indispensible? It hasn’t being going so well! I’ve recently written an article on 6 great uses for...

The Time Bandits: August 2011
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Friday, 12 August 2011. Mañana Man has a very relaxed approach to getting work done. Often to be found feet up in a hammock, maybe working on some trivial and low priority tasks, he “knows” he has plenty of time to get things done and really hasn’t got enough fire in his belly to get on with some of the key stuff until the deadline is looming closer. Looming deadlines stoke the fire and create a rush of activity. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Some time ago we...

The Time Bandits: Mess-ieur
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2012/03/mess-ieur.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Monday, 26 March 2012. This little bandit likes it messy! Their gear is stored all over the place; I say “stored” but for Mess-ieur what’s the point of putting things away if they’re going to be needed soon? Being too tidy, well surely that’s bad for creativity; the chaotic approach suits Mess-sieur much better, never mind that they can never find anything. Even simple tasks take time; the piles have to be waded through to find what’s required. If loss of c...

The Time Bandits: January 2012
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Saturday, 28 January 2012. F irebelly strongly believes that the gang could accomplish bigger and better things and doesn’t hesitate to share this opinion with the other bandits, much to the concern of Slowcoach (November 2011) and Manana Man (August 2011), as you can imagine! Favourite topic of conversation? The next big raid; how can they capture a more valuable haul, take over new territory, smash the enemy? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Some time ago we b...

The Time Bandits: Touchy
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2011/10/touchy.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Wednesday, 12 October 2011. Blimey, another bodged bandit attack! The last raid didn’t go too well either, but the post-raid debrief should have sorted it out and helped everyone to see what went wrong and the part they played in the debacle. This time, everyone’s shaking their heads in disbelief because Touchy made the same mistake again. Even during a team debrief, where no one single person is to blame, Touchy will take it as a personal criticism. Labels...

The Time Bandits: March 2011
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Monday, 14 March 2011. Conditions often have to be right with all the pieces in place, all the research done, and the end to end process thoroughly planned before S O Particular will make a start and take any action! Painstaking, pedantic and picky S O Particular makes slow progress with tasks, dotting every “i” and crossing every “t”. Other people can end up feeling left out, undervalued and under-developed as very little ever gets delegated. Subscribe to:...

The Time Bandits: Ruth Less
http://fennelsolutions.blogspot.com/2012/03/ruth-less.html
The Time Bandits - Time Management Anti-Heroes. Thursday, 8 March 2012. Ruth Less is fighting her way to the top. She has designs on the gang leader’s job and is determined to get it. Fiercely ambitious she often gets into arguments with Firebelly (Jan 2012), that other ambitious and competitive gang member. But whilst Firebelly is ambitious for the increasing success of the gang, Ruth Less’ mind is focused purely on her own success. Hm, friends are one thing, enemies quite another! Some time ago we bega...
