Nora Denzel, former SVP at Hewlett-Packard, had important points to make about how women can get ahead in corporate America. One is: you're judged on your results. That means you need to have all your resources in place and make everything work; no excuses for not getting to the finish line. That may sound harsh, but she also emphasized that if you need help or training to get your job done well, ask for it!
Don't wait around until your boss decides to send everyone to time management class. You need to take initiative to further your own career, and asking for appropriate training it part of that. David Allen's (Getting Things Done) seminars are among the best of this genre, but even a class at your local adult school will give you basics and the structure to make changes. Just ask.
