Johnson Controls Leadership Class

Had a great day with Johnson Controls working with them on situational leadership. It’s always a great touch to incorporate some experiential activities with any program to emphasize certain points… as did the Corporate Box activity. You guys did great, by the way!!

Frontier Country Marketing Association

Had a great day at the Frontier Marketing Association Board retreat. We were at the Bricktown Ballpark on a beautiful pre-spring day… which also happened to be my birthday! Great group of folks moving in a great new direction. Good luck guys!

Manage Your Time!

“Until we can manage time, we can manage nothing else.”
Peter F. Drucker

“You will never ‘find’ time for anything. If you want time, you must make it.”
Charles Bruxton

“Dost thou love life? Then do not squander time, for that is the stuff life is made of.”
Benjamin Franklin

Managing your time effectively is one of the most critical components of the equation for success. I’ve been asked more and more to do presentations on time management. It’s funny… there’s really nothing new under the sun when it comes to managing our time. It’s been a topic of importance throughout history. However, it does seem to be the one dividing line between becoming the “rock star” you know you really are or just remaining the “Charlie Brown” that you’ve always feared you might be. The way we use the 24 hours/day that each of us is given is that line in the sand that separates those who are full of life/purpose/impact on their world and those who just fill up space, breathe air and consume resources.

I recently taught a teleclass on time management that I’d like for you to hear. Here’s the audio file (click to listen or right-click to download)

I hope it helps you become a more effective manager or your time… of your life!
