Webinar to Explore New Ways to Enhance Personal Effectiveness

Are you struggling to reach your personal and professional goals? Have you tried traditional planning techniques, but you're still getting the same results? Jim Sutton, an expert in systems engineering and an adjunct professor in the Operations Management Graduate Program, can help.

Join Jim March 29 at noon for a free webinar on his year-long journey to personal effectiveness. The webinar will feature a snapshot of the end result, called ViRAL: "Visible Reality for an Actionable Life."

Inspired by his background in Lean Thinking and cognition, he began asking the question, "How can these concepts be applied to help someone accomplish more of the things that are important to them professionally and personally?"

The results have exceeded his hopes. Jim found his personal effectiveness quadrupled and his level of peace grew significantly.  Lucky for us, Jim realized that these concepts are helpful to everyone, and he agreed to share his experience and findings.   This approach enhances persistence, the quality that President Calvin Coolidge so famously recommended ("persistence alone is omnipotent") above all others for success.

The result is essentially a "life-operations environment." Unlike personal planners, which for me have been ineffective, it paints a simple, visible, real-time picture of life...both as you desire it to be, and as it is actually unfolding. It fundamentally incorporates time while breaking the tyranny of the "o'clock" scheduling that is nearly universal among planners.

What you will see is the current snapshot of the system Jim initially created for his own use. We hope you will join us for this session that's designed to help you become more effective in all avenues of your life.
