Do What Matters Most

Time management remains a huge challenge for most people. This book shares the habits and processes used by top leaders worldwide to minimize distractions and maximize accomplishments. In working with more than 724 managers and leaders from more than fifty different organizations, Steven and Robert Shallenberger were shocked to discover that although 68 percent of them feel like their number one challenge is time management, 80 percent don't have a clear process. Despite the availability of so many books, seminars, and workshops on time management, there is still a huge need. Drawing on forty years of leadership research, Steven and Robert Shallenberger offer three simple principles that the top 10 percent of leaders use to "do what matters most." They found that successful executives lead with a vision, manage with a plan, and prioritize their time. Implementing these simple and easy-to-understand principles, supported by tools like their Personal Productivity Assessment and Pre-Week Planning process, you will learn how to live a life by design, not by default. You'll feel the power that comes with a sense of control, direction, and purpose.
