The purpose of this paper is to conclude the discussion of the leadership quality of good time management by presenting thoughts on implementing an action plan based on work goals. Design/methodology/approach – The paper establishes the need for good plan implementation and then lays out a way of dealing with problems as they arise. Finally it discusses plan assessment in general terms as either the final step in the implementation, or part of a cycle of assessment and reimplementation.
The findings are that a good leader and manager must be able to carry a plan from planning through implementation and to know when and how to sustain a cycle of assessment and reimplementation.
The value of this paper is in its suggestions for smoothing the way through plan implementation when things go awry.
