Don't make the connection

Do you encourage your employees to manage their time, to structure their tasks, to be self-motivated. Good!  You should.

But you shouldn't expect that to have a significant impact on the performance of the business.

That depends much more on the effectiveness of the systems, process and procedures you put in place to link people and activities together.

So, if things aren't working, it is not likely to be the fault of your staff - its down to you, I'm afraid.
