What do you do when there’s TOO MUCH TO DO?

You mark your calendar and come to THE PRODUCTIVITY ACADEMY with Laura Stack!


After a sold-out event in March, Laura is once again hosting her full-day productivity boot camp on Friday, June 22, 2012, at the beautiful Denver Marriott South at Park Meadows in Lone Tree, CO, from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 PM p.m.

With so much information and so much to do, it's become harder to be productive—and yet we feel busier than ever. With the recession, we're running lean and mean. We have greater expectations placed on us, fewer resources, and more work—adding up to more time in the office—so our personal lives are suffering. Desperate workers are more stressed than ever before, as they receive information from multiple sources and attempt to track and organize it. We're constantly communicating with more people, more quickly, through more media, so we have more conversations to recall.

If you added up the amount of time it would take to complete the tasks on a typical person's to-do list, there might be hundreds of hours of work represented there. You can spend more time "planning" and "prioritizing" than just doing the work! Learn how to organize your life around the stuff that really matters. Adopt a systematic workflow process to help you weed out the high-value tasks, protect the time to do them, and focus on their execution.

 

After 20 years of studying personal productivity, Laura Stack will teach her ALL-NEW, STEP-BY-STEP FORMULA on how to achieve high levels of personal productivity today. Millions of Americans know they need to be on top of their game in the new economic reality! Who better than The Productivity Pro® to show you how?

 

Limited to 100 people only.

 

 

 

Hotel

For you out-of-towners, the Denver Marriott South at Park Meadows has a workout room, full-service restaurant, great bar, concierge room with breakfast for Gold/Platinum level members, and a Starbucks! 

What will you learn?

You'll learn Laura's innovative PRODUCTIVITY WORKFLOW FORMULA (PWF).  Are you tired of hearing "do more with less"?  Many people are already working as long and as hard as they can, and "productivity improvement" classes can be hard to swallow.  Laura Stack, The Productivity Pro, turns time management on its head and shows overwhelmed professionals how to actually DO LESS and ACHIEVE MORE. They'll produce greater results and create significant impact on organizational goals.  Laura teaches her latest thinking using this innovative workflow formula to reduce to-do lists, reduce commitments, reduce distractions, reduce the glut of information, reduce inefficiencies, and reduce energy expenditure.  Past clients using these systems and methods report savings of 90 minutes a day and higher productivity than ever before!
