Working Smart
Working Smart is designed to take you from dreams distillation to an effective action plan that propels you toward meaningful goals. Hone the skills necessary to hit the ground running on Monday morning, and learn to refocus and develop the needed muscles to get back on track when life goes haywire.
This course will help you take a fresh look at what motivates you at a core level and enable you to align your strategies to reflect your true self. A central theme in this course is working from a place of congruence – where who you really are, what you say, and what you do are deeply aligned.
Congruence is a critical - but often overlooked - key to getting unstuck and moving into a fresh season of creativity and excellence.
Video and text inputs introduce key concepts and lead participants through a carefully crafted sequence of reflection exercises and personal inventory assignments. You'll be coached along the Why > What > How continuum, paying careful attention to the subterranean inner dialogue that either fuels success or sabotages desired outcomes. Along the way you'll be equipped with a wealth of tools and resources gleaned from 30+ years of serial entrepreneurship and business leadership.
Who is this course for?
- Entrepreneurs who want to run their business like pros
- Professionals who constantly feel like they "don't have enough time"
- Leaders in business who want to help their employees function at a higher level
- Current or hopeful soon-to-be small business owners who can't seem to get their efforts off the ground
- Anyone who believes that they can have it all - a healthy, functioning personal life and successful business
- Anyone who has launched themselves into a project they are passionate about, only to find themselves stuck

If you're weary of simplistic one-size-fits-all approaches to time management and strategic planning, maybe it's time to develop an action plan tailored to your personal design and core passion. But don't take my word for it, here is what a few Working Smart alumni have to say:
“The Working Smarter seminar was like finding the key to a Cadillac that has been parked in my garage for a quarter of a century. Without the key there was no way to take it out for a spin. I've discovered … it can be a really sweet ride! Most of what I heard there I'd been exposed to before, in some form or another, but you put it together in such a way that my brain could process it and receive it with enthusiasm and excitement.” L.G. – Tennessee
"Working Smart was a game changer for me - I've implemented many things for myself and my team already, and more is coming." ~ J.O. – Florida
"… It is WORK! to seriously look at your business, life, goals, dreams and then to define them, condense them, schedule them, DO them. I have a ways to go before I can say I am truly working smart, but you have helped me get back on the right track! And have given me permission to not have an overwhelmingly long list that pulls me down, rather than accomplishments that build me up! I probably could say more, better, but THANK YOU for believing in us!" ~ P.G. – Illinois
"The time just flew by so quickly. I really enjoy the way you think and present your thoughts." ~ L.S. – Ohio
"So many useful points and tips, along with guidance to address the hard parts. The principals you taught will make a difference for me in my personal life, as well as professionally and as I move forward in my (...) business." ~ J.S. – Indiana
"I have designated Fridays from 3:30 – 5 p.m. as my “date with desire, determination, destiny!” I have discovered that “squirrel!” happens in my life much more frequently than I thought and I am working toward using the 1 – 3 – 5 while I figure out how to fit all my activities into time blocks. (...) Your passion was as much instructive as your information – whichwas well formatted and presented." ~ J.C. – Maryland
"Part of my experience (with Working Smart) was absolute lightning inside when I heard the phrase “Fail often, fail quick and pivot”. Probably the most useful phrase for me personally. (...) The seminar (is) an excellent presentation on the skill of time management and a truth-bearing seminar on becoming congruent with one’s why." ~ A.G. – West Virginia
