About me
After three decades as a business owner, team leader, and employee in both companies and government agencies, I’ve found there is one key factor in every organization. We take on more than we can finish.
Almost every client (individual or organizational) I have worked with, regardless of vertical, is overworked. Being overworked means they don’t have time to pay attention to their work, its context, or their co-workers. This fosters hasty decisions made with a lack of information. These poor decisions create re-work, unnecessary emergencies, and unrewarding working conditions.
Since writing Personal Kanban and winning the Shingo Research Award, I have had the good fortune to:
* work with Fortune 10 companies, major world governments, and the most dynamic startups
* monthly keynote conferences globally
* be interviewed in major publications including Time, Newsweek, Wired, LifeHacker, The New York Times, the Times of London, Inc, and Businessweek.
I enjoy helping people and teams work out sticky problems, an advocate of people actually seeing their work, and inventing new ways to work at the intersection of problem solving, brain science, and leadership.
