Time leadership

Creating a culture of time

In this thought-provoking presentation, Julie makes the case that time doesn't happen in a vacuum, it happens in a community. While we often think of time management as an individual resource, it is also a collective one. The work habits of each employee have a direct impact (for better, or worse), on the ability of those around them to operate efficiently and effectively. Rather than becoming victims of time and each other, we can all be time leaders, consciously shaping our environment to bring out the best in ourselves and others.

This presentation is good for senior leaders, managers, learning and development professionals.

MAKING WORK, WORK

counterintuitive Keys to Productivity

Today’s intense work environment requires brand new skills to focus on what’s most important, and get things done. Based on her book, Never Check Email in the Morning, Julie offers a cutting edge approach to boosting productivity, by focusing on managing energy and brainpower to get more out of the day. Audiences learn to prioritize with confidence, create the time to concentrate in a highly distractible environment, outsmart email and interruptions, and optimize time off to ensure peak performance.

SHED: DECLUTTERING TO GET UNSTUCK

Managing change is not easy. SHED is a practical framework for proactively managing any life transition and the feeling of being unstuck and unsure. Julie guides audiences through the tangible process of letting go of the obsolete in their spaces, habits and way of working to make room for new experiences and healthy growth. Audiences learn to distinguish between organizing and decluttering, how to see pockets of disorder as opportunities for growth, morph fuzzy ideas into catalyzing themes for the future, and what you do before and after decluttering to sustain change. Based on Julie’s book SHED Your Stuff, Change Your Life, this talk empowers audiences to find the courage and clarity to move forward, and to live as their most authentic, fully engaged selves.

This presentation supports any group experiencing change– --companies who have restructured or right sized people facing changes in their jobs or industry, students graduating high school or college, and individuals facing retirement, new parenthood, or an empty nest.
