BACKGROUND
Working with J&J for over 14 years
Janssen is one of the worlds leading research based pharmaceutical organisations in the world and is part of the Johnson & Johnson family of companies. Johnson & Johnson companies have approximately 126,500 employees working in more than 265 operating companies located in 60 countries. Priority Management Training has been working with Janssen and J&J Family of companies for over 14 years.
We started with Gerry Collins Leadership teams in Ireland, Holland, USA and Puerto Rico within the MTO (Manufacturing and Technical Operations) division of Janssen Supply Chain. Based on the success of these training programmes we trained all the leadership and extended management teams in all these sites. Amounting to over 800 managers and staff.
CHALLENGE TO PRIORITY MANAGEMENT
A customised time and workload management training programme
The challenge presented by Gerry Collins and the Janssen leadership team to Priority Management was to deliver a customised time and workload management training programme that would improve personal and team productivity, help individuals, manager’s and staff focus on priorities and become more proactive; and help people manage high volumes of email.
- Customised course curriculum to incorporate the J&J Ethos
- Multiple delivery options across several countries.
”My platform leadership team and the site leadership teams all benefited from this personal investment in them to help them manage the email nightmare they all live in. It gave them tools to immediately manage this daily, hourly and minute by minute task which landed on us all as electronic systems were rolled out over the years with no guidance on how to work productively with such tools. By having the full team using the same approach it allows us to have the same priority categories etc and have everyone feel they have control over the email burden”. Almost all participants thanked me for arranging this course and deploying it globally. Productivity increases of >1 hour per day were reported by all.

PRIORITY MANAGEMENT SOLUTION
Saving on average 51 mins per person per day
Working in close consultation with Janssen Senior Director of Human Resources, Wijnand de Valk, Priority Management took the WorkingSm@rt™ with MS Outlook programme and customised it to incorporate specific Janssen goals and objectives.
This was an instructor led training programme delivered by an expert Priority Management facilitator, and run in Janssen sites in Ireland, Holland, Belgium, USA and Puerto Rico.
Programme graduates then all received an individual follow up training session a week after their initial workshop to reinforce the training done at the workshop, and to make sure the processes and techniques were implemented back at the desk by each and every course graduate.
Each graduate also receives our monthly support LearningLink™ with short articles and techniques to continuously improve in this area of personal productivity.
Using this technique our training programme, FOLLOWED BY INDIVIDUAL BACK UP TRAINING, we have achieved outstanding results and the Return on the Training investment is over 1400%.
We are saving on average 51 mins per person per day which is equivalent to 30 days per person per year saved with reduced stress.
