Taymar Pixley was the director of the new Time Management Fundamentals course at lynda.com. You can read her insights, as well as insights from the crew, here.

You can get a free 7-Day trial to this Time Management Fundamentals course (and all of the other 999 courses at lynda.com!) by clicking here.
