Abstract
Research background: The article deals with the issue of manager´s time management in the non-profit sector in Slovakia in the conditions of the globalization. We verified the dependence through hypotheses that we established for each of the factors according to empirical studies, in which the impact on work organization and time management on managers was identified. Factors of time management according to reliability represented setting goals and priorities, using time management techniques, organizing work and workspace, and controlling one’s own time. Purpose of the article: The aim of the article is to point out the influence of time management on managers. We evaluate this impact in relation to stress reactions such as work-related stress and the manifestation of somatic symptoms, but also positive effects in the form of increased job satisfaction and better evaluation of work performance. Methods: We evaluated the qualitative data by creating Contingency Tables, which served as a basis for testing dependence with Pearson’s χ2 independence test or Fisher’s exact test. The intensity of the dependence was determined by the most used Cramer coefficient. Findings & Value added: The results point to the dependence of individual time management factors on the areas of impact in the form of work-related stress, the emergence of somatic symptoms, job satisfaction and subjective evaluation of managers’ work performance. In the discussion, in the context of globalization, we compared the views of the authors of the issue with our results and we tried to point out the possibilities and measures that could be applied in the findings.
Highlights

The seventh factor focused on satisfaction from the work of the JDS (3 items). This factor focuses on the diagnosis of work in terms of general job satisfaction [13] and the last factor is the evaluation of JPS work performance (5 items), which focuses on quality, quantity, cooperation, reliability and general evaluation
In the first research question, we focused on finding out what effect it has from completing a course in time management on the factors of the TMBS scale
Summary
Time management has been described using many different terms, including spontaneity, balance, flexibility, and time control [1]. Time management can be considered as a process by which the individual fulfills the tasks and goals more effectively It is the process by which an individual gains control over the timing and content of what [2] does, and the way in which this can be achieved with the time available to us [3]. [6] pointed to an increased pace of life, which is reflected in faster performance (acceleration), reduced time costs (eg eating faster, less sleep) and compression activities (lunch telephony) This is a way to gain insight into the use of time by managers and focusing on techniques for saving the time available to perform managerial activities by eliminating internal and external influences on the work of managers
