 is work performed by a team towards a common goal.

In a business setting accounting techniques may be used to provide financial measures of the
benefits of team work which are useful for justifying the concept.[1]

In health care team work has been defined as:

a dynamic process involving two or more healthcare professionals with complementary

backgrounds and skills, sharing common health goals and exercising concerted physical
and mental effort in assessing, planning, or evaluating patient care.[2]

Team work is increasingly advocated by health care policy makers as a means of assuring quality
and safety in the delivery of services.[3]

A 

is the learned capacity to carry out pre-determined results often with the minimum outlay
of time, energy, or both. Skills can often be divided into domain-general and domain-specific
skills. For example, in the domain of work, some general skills would include time management,
teamwork and leadership, self motivation and others, whereas domain-specific skills would be
useful only for a certain job. Skill usually requires certain environmental stimuli and situations to
assess the level of skill being shown and used.

People need a broad range of skills in order to contribute to a modern economy and take their
place in the technological society of the 21st century. A joint ASTD and U.S. Department of
Labor study showed that through technology, the workplace is changing, and identified 16 basic
skills that employees must have to be able to change with it."Retraining 50 Million Americans:

   refers to a range of skills, tools, and techniques used to manage time when
accomplishing specific tasks, projects and goals. This set encompasses a wide scope of activities,
and these include planning, allocating, setting goals, delegation, analysis of time spent,
monitoring, organizing, scheduling, and prioritizing. Initially, time management referred to just
business or work activities, but eventually the term broadened to include personal activities as
well. A time management system is a designed combination of processes, tools, techniques, and
methods. Usually time management is a necessity in any project development as it determines
the project completion time and scope. tober 9, 2010

Time management is a very valuable skill in today¶s society. But what is it, really? Most of us are constantly trying
to cope with an increasing number of requirements, commitments, and interests. How should this be handled? Is
time management the answer?

While skills in  

   definitely are important in ³handling it all without loosing it´, such skills solely
don¶t comprise a silver bullet. There are other things that have to be in place too.
Time management skills are crucial for your effectiveness as a manager. By better managing
your time you will be able to accomplish everything in your "to do list" and meet your goals
without exhausting all your resources. Rushing thorough hectic schedules makes it easier to put
things off:
" too busy for an activity-log, too busy for a training on time management skills etc.". Putting
off your time management plan is putting off your opportunity to become productive.

Start taking control today by intellectually and strategically self-assessing your time management
skills, monitoring and evaluating your schedule, your goals and start planing for effectiveness.

Time management becomes challenging not always because of the workload, but because of the
approaches taken to implement certain tasks. You may be putting your energy on the wrong
tasks. Examine your activities and their relation to your goals. Are thy taking you were you want
to be?
Are you using your time to accomplish the things you truly want?

Start with the following quiz and then move on to the next step. You will be glad you did.

An open-ended fund operated by an investment company which raises money from shareholders
and invests in a group of assets, in accordance with a stated set of objectives. mutual funds raise
money by selling shares of the fund to the public,
much like any other type of company can sell stock in itself to the public. Mutual funds then take
the money they receive from the sale of their shares (along with any money made from previous
investments) and use it to purchase various investment vehicles, such as stocks, bonds and
money market instruments. In return for the money they give to the fund when purchasing
shares, shareholders receive an equity position in the fund and, in effect, in each of its underlying
securities. For most mutual funds, shareholders are free to sell their shares at any time, although
the price of a share in a mutual fund will fluctuate daily, depending upon the performance of the
securities held by the fund. Benefits of mutual funds include diversification and professional
money management. Mutual funds offer choice, liquidity, and convenience, but charge fees and
often require a minimum investment. A closed-end fund is often incorrectly referred to as a
mutual fund, but is actually an investment trust. There are many types of mutual funds, including
aggressive growth fund, asset allocation fund, balanced fund, blend fund, bond fund, capital
appreciation fund, clone fund, closed fund, crossover fund, equity fund, fund of funds, global
fund, growth fund, growth and income fund, hedge fund, income fund, index fund, international
fund, money market fund, municipal bond fund, prime rate fund, regional fund, sector fund,
specialty fund, stock fund, and tax-free bond fund.

Franklin Resources, Inc.

Who We Are?
Franklin Resources, Inc., is a global investment management organisation known as Franklin
Templeton Investments. Our headquarters are located just south of San Francisco, in San Mateo,
California. We have offices in 29 countries around the world.

Franklin Templeton's association with India dates back to more t han a decade as an investor. As part of
the group's major thrust on investing in markets around the world, the India office was set up in 1996 as
Templeton Asset Management India Pvt. Limited. It flagged off the mutual fund business with the launch
of Templeton India Growth Fund in September 1996, and since then the business has grown at a steady
pace.

The company was founded in 1947 in New York by Rupert H. Johnson, Sr., who ran a
successful retail brokerage firm from an office on Wall Street. He named the company for
U.S. founding father Benjamin Franklin because Franklin epitomized the ideas of frugality
and prudence when it came to saving and investing. The company's first line of mutual funds,
Franklin Custodian Funds, was a series of conservatively managed equity and bond funds
designed to appeal to most investors.

Franklin Templeton Investments has grown from being recognized as one of the best small companies in
America to being considered a premier global investment management organization. We offer clients a
valuable perspective shaped by our six decades of experience, investment expertise and growing global
reach
