The Productive Few: Five Behaviors That Let You Close Your Laptop Without Guilt
Join us for our September Program, featuring Jenna Piché
You finish a full day of client work, close your laptop, and immediately think: "When am I going to work on my business?" The proposals that need writing. The networking you've been putting off. The strategic thinking that never seems to happen. So you open the laptop back up—again.
This session is based on proprietary research studying 650+ working professionals to identify the specific behaviors that separate high performers from those who feel perpetually busy but unproductive. The findings are clear: it's not about working harder—it's about working with intention.
You'll learn how to CRAFT your most productive day—so you can actually leave work at work. These aren't generic tips; they're research-backed strategies designed for consultants who face constant client demands, shifting priorities, and the challenge of building a business while serving clients. You'll discover the five elements that high performers use to stay focused and effective, even when everything around them feels chaotic.
Key Takeaways:
- How to design your day before it designs you — so client urgencies don't automatically hijack time for business development and strategic thinking.
- The power of starting right — a simple ritual that helps top performers shift into focus mode, even when opening your inbox feels like chaos.
- Why your environment is sabotaging you — how to design your workspace to protect attention instead of fragmenting it across tools and notifications.
- The filter that cuts through the noise — a practical decision-making tool to identify what actually moves your practice forward.
- How to set boundaries that actually stick — the specific thresholds high performers establish without damaging client relationships or appearing unresponsive.
