ABSTRACT
This study determined the time management techniques required by managers and supervisors in business organizations in the Enugu metropolis. A survey design was used. Four research questions and four null hypotheses guided the study. The population comprised 167 managers and supervisors purposively sampled from 25 medium and large organizations. A questionnaire validated by five experts was used for primary data collection. The instrument’s internal consistency was measured using Chronbach Alpha and the result was 0.88 reliability index. Mean and standard deviation were used to analyze and answer the research questions, while t-test was used to test the null hypotheses at .05 level of significance. Analysis was done with Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS). The study found that four operationalized clusters of time management techniques were, for the most part, required in medium and large business organizations, thereby confirming the position of previous authors and researchers on the issue. Recommendations included that organizations should provide training opportunities for their staff to acquire the time management techniques identified by this research; private and public institutions should develop internal manuals and procedures to guide their staff on proper time management practices; curriculum planners should incorporate time management as part of the course contents for business and management students; and business leaders should monitor their subordinates to discourage physical and electronic-based activities that contribute nothing to productivity.
