What To Do About Too Much To Do

Let’s be honest. Your proverbial plate is already running over with all you have to do. Even worse, your mind is racing with fresh ideas for improvement and growth. If only there was a solution to this dilemma that didn’t involve cloning yourself. Our speaker today says the answer is to run off and join the circus… at least mentally.

Using the model of a successful circus, this highly engaging presentation will equip you to better manage your time and energy to explore new opportunities and achieve better results. Most importantly, you’ll be ready to run your circus instead of letting the circus run YOU!

A More Natural Way To Lead Your Team To Better Results

You’re busy. You are already feeling overloaded. You’d like to build greater capacity in yourself and members of your team, but where would you find the time? You need a fresh and practical blueprint. Jones says that new approach is built on four words: Grow, Cultivate, Prune, and Harvest.

In this innovative and engaging presentation built on the timeless practices of a gardener, Jones equips leaders to identify where change is needed in their daily activities and take productive action.

Key Objectives

  • Assess if you have more of a “mechanic” or “gardener” mindset toward leadership

  • How to create an environment that allows everyone to deliver their best work

  • Communicate goals and priorities more clearly by using a “sensible vision”

  • Develop daily routines using the “3 Ps” that ensure you are growing yourself, your team, and your organization

  • Identify where you need to spend less time and energy so they are more readily available to work on your highest priorities like talent development and strategic planning

  • How to sustain the motivation of yourself and others to grow even in times of uncertainty

Now We Go Home…So What?

You have spent the past few days taking in all this new information, networking with your peers, and started thinking about how far behind you are at work. But have you thought about the right strategies to achieve better results when you return home? How will you take all you have gained at the conference and implement these ideas into your already overloaded schedule? Jones Loflin says the answer lies in 5 simple words: Who, What, Where, When, and Why.
