Take the 1 day challenge

Work is like a gas – it expands to fill the available time.

Known as Parkinson’s law, it kills team productivity. When tasks take too long and projects go on forever, we lose focus and motivation. Especially when there’s too much else going on.

But what if we turn Parkinson’s law on its head?

If you’re familiar with agile working, you’ll know the concept of time boxing. You can apply it to literally anything. A basic example is the Pomodoro method, using a kitchen timer to overcome procrastination and complete a daunting task in 25 minutes. It gets stuff done.

Scale it with your team

With time boxing, you could solve a problem that’s been bugging your team for a while but never gets the full attention it needs. Something that might take a few days, hence you keep putting it off.

How would you feel if you could get it done in one day?

TAKE THE 1 DAY CHALLENGE

(And it has a twist at the end)

No faffing about. I will help you and your team generate meaningful results in a single day. Because we will focus on a single issue that will make a real difference to your team right now.

How? I’ll come to your office or venue. We’ll start by establishing a base level of trust in the team, which helps us define 1. the problem 2. how we work together and 3. what a good outcome looks like. Call it sharpening the axe before wielding it. And then we will work together to achieve it.

In one day.

You bring the content, I bring the coaching and consulting skills. Together, we’ll do whatever it takes to make real progress on your issue, in a single day. With creative thinking, focus, dedication, and immediate action.

As the day progresses, you may be surprised by the speed and collective wisdom of your team. You’ll get to know your colleagues better. You’ll gain a sense of possibility, progress and achievement.

And here comes the twist.

I work with people who are curious and willing to experiment. If you are prepared to put skin in the game, so am I. Therefore, beyond travel expenses, you pay me what you can afford and what you feel the day was worth to your team. Simple as that.

Let’s have a chat. If we’re a good fit I’ll book my travel ticket.
