Announcing South Florida Launch of Take Back Your Life Productivity Training

Fort Lauderdale, FL – McGhee Productive Solutions is pleased to announce registration for its upcoming seminar, Take Back Your Life!, on June 27, 2012. The one-day program marks the company’s entry into the Florida market, and provides South Florida business professionals with the tools to cope with massive amounts of email, interruptions, and other distractions that take away from companies' bottom lines. The event will be held from 8:30am to 5pm at the Tower Club, 100 S.E. Third Avenue, Fort Lauderdale. Registration is available online for $249 before June 13.

The seminar will be facilitated by Fort Lauderdale-based management consultant, executive coach, and productivity expert, Shani Magosky. Magosky started her career at Goldman, Sachs & Co. in New York as the first University of Miami graduate to work in their Investment Banking Division. Having spent her early career analyzing, advising, and investing in companies, she then made the transition to management roles, serving as General Manager of a television station and then as COO/CFO of a marketing company before joining McGhee.

"Two defining conditions of the current business environment have triggered a perfect storm and natural demand for productivity training: information overload from the ever-increasing velocity of technology innovation, and employee overload as a result of corporate downsizing and budget constraints,” says Magosky. “Striking an appropriate work/life balance brings out the best in people in all aspects of their lives, and the need to equip knowledge workers with such tools has never been greater, with over-stressed people tasked with doing more with less.”
 
Take Back Your Life enhances the productivity of managers and teams by utilizing Microsoft Outlook® in new ways and inspiring people to shift their thinking and behavior...because in the absence of change, the only reasonable and expected outcome is 'more of the same.' Participants will learn how to focus effectively on their responsibilities despite the non-stop pressure of required--but not necessarily urgent--input, decisions, and actions. By the end of the seminar, participants will experience a sense of relaxed control, with objectives, projects, and action steps organized in an effective new system.
 
Key issues addressed will include eliminating e-mail and information overload, powerfully managing multiple projects, effectively dealing with interruptions, and integrating personal and professional priorities. Among the average documented benefits from McGhee clients are a 78% reduction in the number of emails stored in the inbox, 33% less time spent looking for information, 60% reduction in interruptions, 30% improvement in the perception of work/life balance, and 11 hours reclaimed each week.
