Abstract

The article examines the organizational and managerial aspects of the professional and personal development of academic staff. It highlights the need for effective planning and optimal time management due to the fast-paced dynamics of modern society, the importance of acquiring new knowledge and innovative technologies, and evolving labor market demands. Emphasis is placed on the idea that professional and personal development of academic staff represents a type of productive work, serving as a foundation for sustaining one’s livelihood. Productive work enables academic staff to express themselves, assert their identity, realize intellectual and creative potential, gain psychological experience, and foster a sense of moral dignity, among other aspects. The study substantiates that effective activity planning and time management help: accurately set priorities; establish long-term goals; complete tasks on time; maintain high productivity; develop leadership qualities; process information efficiently; complete tasks effectively; prevent overload; harmonize personal development; improve quality of life; balance work and rest; foster professional growth; and increase chances of success in endeavors with optimal investment of effort, energy, and resources. The article discusses current trends, methods, principles, models, and theories of activity planning and time management, including «Kaizen», «Eat That Frog», «Getting Things Done» (GTD), «Energy Cycles», «Priority Outcomes», «Timeboxing», «4DX» (Four Disciplines of Execution), «5S», digital app use, «ABC analysis», «Pomodoro», adaptive time management, «Eisenhower Matrix», «Parkinson's Law», «GROW», and «Deep Work». An integrated and comprehensive approach to organizing personal and professional development for academic staff is proposed, comprising four stages: goal setting and prioritization; time planning and task allocation; task execution; and monitoring and adjusting.
