A valuable business asset

Among the major challenges for managers identified by VISCONTI, the lack of availability is undoubtedly the most obvious.

Paradoxically, at a time when technologies seek to save us more and more time, we feel that we have less and less time. For a manager, the lack of time is both greater and more problematic.

Indeed, and particularly in SMEs, most managers condition their responsibility on being present and active on all fronts. They therefore quickly find themselves overwhelmed by the quantity of tasks they have to perform or manage.

The result is a lack of time, which is all the more worrying since managers should benefit from moments of reflection in order to implement an effective and sustainable strategy.

The manager's time is therefore one of the fundamental cogs in the success of a company and it is the first angle of attack for business coaching at VISCONTI.

Indeed, the first coaching phase (“Mastering”) allows the manager, through workshops and exhaustive tools, to take control of all the data of his company, from marketing to human resources, including sales and financial affairs.

Reallocate 20% of your time to activities with high added value

During this phase, a particular focus is placed on the manager himself in order to allow him to reallocate 20% of his time to activities with high added value.

To do this, all the habits of the manager are analyzed by a detailed questionnaire, then a very detailed audit of the manager's agenda is carried out in order to find a balance between his daily imperatives and the good time management practices that VISCONTI describes in 11 principles.

Effectively support the development of your business

The numerical constraint proposed by VISCONTI allows the manager to:

• To set a clear goal
• To put in place a detailed action plan to achieve it

On average, out of ten managers coached, two of them reach the 20% target, three reach 15% and five reach 10%. Managers are therefore able to reallocate at least half a day of their week and a maximum of one day.

Here is a real example of a coached manager in business services:

This achievable objective of 20% allows a real improvement in the way the manager operates, who can then refocus his activities on strategic issues, be available in a more relaxed manner and effectively support the development of his company.
