Investment

$300 for non-members (free for BCC Members). Includes a 30-min follow up call for individual and bespoke advice.

Who Is It For?

  • Current micro consultancy partners, with less than 12 full-time employees, who have new goals or responsibilities and need to make changes on the way they invest their working hours.
  • Solo consultants who are looking for guidance and bespoke support to better manage their time.

Description

Most discussions of how to increase our effectiveness and make more without working more start with the idea of planning and prioritizing tasks. This sounds right, but doesn't work - our plans are rarely put into practice.

Effective consultancy partners don't start with their actions - but with their time. Instead of listing tasks, they list their time. Where is it going? What is not worth my time and can be cut back, so I have time for what really matters?

The reason for this is simple: Our biggest constraint is not capital, expertise, or people - but time.

If we lack capital, we can add hustle. If we lack expertise, we can pay for other people to perform our tasks. There is no substitute for time.

And as Peter Drucker said, effective work takes time:

To spend a few minutes with people is simply not productive. If one wants to get anything across, one has to spend a fairly large minimum quantum of time. The manager who thinks that he can discuss the plans, direction, and performance of one of his subordinates in fifteen minutes—and many managers believe this—is just deceiving himself. If one wants to get to the point of having an impact, one needs probably at least an hour and usually much more. And if one has to establish a human relationship, one needs infinitely more time.

Everyone wants to do more with less. But trying to optimize our time doesn't work. And technology might have actually made the situation worse.

How well are you managing your time? Do you know if you're using it right?

The workshop will help you create a plan and system to increase effectiveness without giving up your discretionary time.
