Overview

The problem is not just that we are getting distracted from work; its that were getting distracted from important work by other work. All this distraction takes a toll on the quality of work we deliver and ultimately on our quality of life. People who manage their attention poorly are constantly in reactive mode.

That leaves them no time to reflect and thoughtfully apply their knowledge and experience to offer employers an edge in their business the very reasons they were hired in the first place. The truth is, we have to work differently now. We need a new kind of training to be truly effective. This session focuses on productivity skills that empower employees to overcome these new challenges.
