However, It was with the methodical approach, that I learnt through HOPE, I could harness my own abilities and power(s) effectively. After attending that session, I had then made 9 work related and personal goals and kept following the S & F system religiously. I was able to achieve 7 of those 9 goals in a span of next 12 months . I would personally recommend to try it honestly and see that using a planned approach for your life can redefine newer height and greater satisfaction for your life.”

HR Manager, IT Company that has had more the 10 workshops

I have been using the tools and techniques of the HOPE session for almost 1 year. I have become much more conscious around the prioritization of work nowadays. I am also planning & time-boxing every activity & trying to achieve it. However, the biggest benefit has been to plan & work on the long-term goals which I never did before. Those are always on my radar everyday in addition to business-as-usual activities. I can say that I am much well-planned and well-managed these days compared to what I was a year back. Thanks a lot Use Time!

Project Manager, Cognizant

I have had a great learning experience from the HOPE Program. These are principles that we need to apply even in our daily life. This program has helped me appreciate others and my own time better. It has immensely helped me manage my personal tasks which usually get relegated as an “unimportant” task. Today, I am able to better manage both Official and Personal tasks, helping me to have a less stressful life. Use Time workshops leaders are amongst the finest coaches / trainers I have met. They make the sessions so lively and interactive.
