Abstract

The article examines the current state of technologies for implementing effective time management. A comparative analysis of the correspondence between existing technologies and time management methodologies is performed. Cases of ineffective management resulting from excessive costs associated with the management processes themselves are identified. A balance of planning, control, and change processes in time management is proposed. The study provides a comprehensive investigation into the transformation of management and information technologies for time management during the emergence of the Management 4.0 concept. The current state of tools for implementing effective time management strategies at both individual and team levels is analyzed. Particular attention is paid to a critical comparison of classical methodologies – such as GTD, the Eisenhower Matrix, and Agile (Kanban) – with corresponding digital solutions based on cloud computing and artificial intelligence algorithms.
In the course of the research, a systemic problem of ineffective management was identified, arising from excessive temporal and cognitive costs for maintaining the planning and monitoring processes themselves. It was found that without data logistics automation, digital tools can decrease overall labor productivity. The author proposes tabular models for balancing rigid planning, automated control, and adaptive changes. The scientific novelty of the work lies in substantiating the necessity of transitioning to the seamless integration of services through automation platforms and AI assistants, allowing time management to transform from a discrete action into a background intellectual process. The practical significance of the results consists in the development of applied scenarios for workspace creation to minimize routine operations, ensuring the release of resources for strategic and creative activities in the context of the digital transformation of organizations.
