Time Management Styles

Do I tend to work on many things at the same time? Do I need a schedule to plan when to work on one or the other? Do I naturally tend to be punctual or flexible? For what things do I allot plenty of time? Lothar Seiwert makes the argument that there are universal tools for time management. He combines various tools and a personality model to find “your own type of time management behavior.

Extrovertive and offensive
Task Oriented	dominating	initiating	Relation Oriented
	precisely	steady
Introverted and defensive

Therefore the combination of knowledge about the personalities in your team and how a person executes specific tasks preferentially, helps you to understand how you already collaborate in a team or how you could do it. Task plans and schedules can be applied on a basis of such an analysis.
