The Personal Efficiency Program

Increasing business productivity and efficiency, changing forever the way people work. 

The Personal Efficiency Program (PEP) is centred on creating an environment where organisations, teams and individuals can do more meaningful and important work each day. The program allows each participant to understand and create the conditions that allow them to work best. 

PEP helps individuals and teams to get more, high impact work done each day through developing individual efficiency (getting more done with least effort) and effectiveness (doing more of the right things). It delivers a set of practical principles which streamline work methods and maximise efficiency that covers all areas of work process which affect productivity, including time management, changing work environments, managing stress, maintaining a work-life balance, prioritising, strategic planning, using technology effectively and working efficiently within a team.

The program is delivered over a series of highly customised workshops and one-on-one coaching sessions, providing the most up-to-the minute, relevant and innovative solutions to the particular challenges of today's work environment. Individual coaching takes place in your own work space, providing an immediate context for everything you've learned. The program is structured as a series of separate days of learning over several weeks. This encourages optimal learning and retention, ensuring that behavioural changes are sustained and that increased efficiency is long-term.
