After 20 years spent working with hundreds of client organizations, thousands of executive teams and over a
hundred thousand individuals, we are very familiar with many of the challenges, obstacles and resistance to change. We are also familiar with some of the key factors that contribute to making
change effective and sustainable.
As a result, we have designed a program to assist organizations to implement effective, on-site change programs that minimize the amount of time people spend in
training sessions, support training programs currently in process, and maximize the desired result by introducing new skills and learning rapidly and effectively into the culture without taking
people away from their jobs.
This 30 Week Personal Productivity & Skills Development Program
has been developed and honed over the course of the last 10 years
through in-depth application in a number of interventions with our leading corporate, government, association and not-for-profit clients. As a result the program is practical, relevant, highly
effective, easy to implement and extremely cost effective.
The program is designed to work with individuals, intact work teams as well as whole companies. Because of its easy to implement
features and its broad range of topics, its also works naturally, complementing other learning and competency programs you may be currently using.
The 30 Week Personal Productivity &
Skills Development Program is made up of 15 primary lessons. Each is delivered electronically (hard copy programs and audio taped versions are also available)
to the individuals participating in the program.
Test Topics Each
lesson involves an introduction, a set of easy to follow exercises, some questions and a unique series of quotes and motivational stories designed to be sent out periodically during each
lesson period to provide encouragement and motivation to the participants. In addition, the program involves a valuable buddy system and formation of a resource group that promotes a higher level
of success, builds stronger interpersonal relationships and promotes better teaming.
What makes this program particularly valuable is that beyond the half-hour or so it takes to read
through the lesson the rest of the time is spent applying the tools and concepts to daily tasks. As a result, line managers can experience positive results for their whole team without loss of
time and at very reasonable costs. In addition to the valuable leadership and management skills covered in each lesson, this program assists in establishing a climate in which learning is
transparent and collaborative. The program is also flexible, timely, easy to implement, cost efficient, applicable to both work and personal lives and highly effective. In fact, this program can
assist the average individual in increasing his or her personal productivity by between 10% and 25%. This is the equivalent of adding one to three months more productivity per individual per year.
At a time when training costs are rising and the challenges of maintaining a competitive edge more difficult, our 30-Week Personal Productivity and Skills Development Program is a
valuable tool that you can implement company-wide for a single one year, unlimited use fee.

Those of us who are tasked with supporting our organizations to become more effective, productive, sustainable and profitable know that it is not an easy task. The process of introducing new
competencies and skills into a culture must compete with the daily pressures and demands of getting the job done. To compound matters, getting leadership
and line managers to commit the time and money for training sessions-both on and off-site-can be challenging. Indeed, although Stephen Covey and others have pointed out that 'sharpening the saw' is one of the most important things any of us can do, convincing others
and ourselves to take the time to do it can be a frustrating job.
