Abstract
Time management is the process of organizing and planning how
to divide your time between specific activities. Good time
management enables you to work smarter – not harder – so that
you can get more done in less time, even when time is constrained
and work pressures are high. Failing to manage your time lapses
causes stress and hampers effectiveness. Good time management
practices lead to the satisfaction at workplace so one can enjoy his
duties with utmost pleasure. The study was designed to investigate
the relationship between time management practices and
administrative satisfaction of the school principals in Punjab.
Specifically, the study explored the level of administrative
satisfaction experienced by the principals and their time
management practices in terms of gender. The study employed a
correlation survey research design. The target population of the
study was all the principals working in government higher
Secondary School of the Punjab. A sample of one hundred
principals from seven districts (randomly selected) participated in
this study. These principals were selected from both (male and
female) type of higher secondary school of the above mentioned
districts. The researcher developed a questionnaire to measure,
time management practices and administrative satisfaction of the
principals. Three research questions guided the study. Data
collected with the instrument were analyzed both descriptively and
inferentially using mean, standard deviation and correlation. The
results revealed that male principals manage their time better than
the female principals. Overall government higher secondary
school principals experience a moderate level of administrative
satisfaction. The level of satisfaction in male principals is higher
than those of their female counterparts. The study further revealed
that there is a significant positive relationship between time
management and administration satisfaction in secondary school
administration. Thus time management and administration are the
bold functions of each other. Some potent recommendations were
made on the basis of the results to see the principals more joyful
enriched with the time management practices as needed and
desired in this regard.
