THE IMPORTANCE OF TIME MANAGEMENT IN NON-PROFIT ORGANIZATIONS.

One of the most challenging issues faced by nonprofit managers is improving organizational efficiency. Another challenge for leading nonprofit organizations is managing limited resources in a competitive social services industry to meet growing service requirements. To meet the growing demands of their constrained constituencies, nonprofit leaders could implement effective time management practices to ensure organizational success. Although there is extensive literature on organizational efficiency, there was limited data available specifically for non-profit organizations, especially regarding time management training. The purpose of this article was to identify the perception of time management and the use of effective time management strategies. The study findings revealed statistically significant relationships between the TMPI score and selected demographic data. The findings revealed that leaders perceived the use of time, demographic characteristics, attitudes and time management strategies were factors in the introduction of effective time management techniques to improve the organization's success and efficiency. The results provided a framework for nonprofit managers to adopt time management - strategies that could improve the funding of research efforts and organizational success and efficiency. The results revealed why some nonprofit implementation managers are not implementing effective time management strategies to expand funding opportunities and improve individual and organizational growth and success. This research focuses on the lack of knowledge about the effective use of time management strategies in non-profit organizations. The current study has attempted to provide a realistic analysis of how leaders perceive timing and effective time management strategies that affect organizational success. Focusing on nonprofit groups could be a missing link to help nonprofit leaders to increase the effectiveness of the organization. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
