Most business owners waste thousands of dollars every year while believing they’re doing what’s best for their business. How? They spend their time completing tasks others could complete better or faster. To make the highest contribution to your business, you need to understand your hourly rate and your high-leverage work. And, you need an effective strategy to eliminate, automate, or delegate the rest. When you leave this intensive, you’ll be equipped to commit your time to your high-profit contribution.

Leading in a changing economic landscape requires courage. But you’ll leave this intensive up for the challenge.
Promise: Tackle any difficulty you face in your business with a simple and proven three-step process to generate solutions that get results.
All business requires effective problem-solving. It’s part of building any plan. It’s also part of fixing one that’s not working or optimizing one that is. Problem-solving is a skill that can be taught, and it all consists in (1) recognizing how to identify the stories we’re telling ourselves about the problems we face; (2) separating facts from fiction to ensure we properly understand the challenges; and (3) taking what we know and imagining new responses to the situation. When you leave this intensive, you’ll see how to break down any difficulty you face and generate new solutions that get results.
