THE 70TH ANNUAL CONVENTION AND TRADE SHOW IS APPROACHING!

With increasing complexity, most people are tasked with doing more than they can successfully execute. Eric Papp helps audiences clarify their thinking on what’s most important so they can achieve greater impact and feel in control again.

The more complex, fast-paced, and challenging life becomes, the more we need to have space to think: thinking time to spot irrelevant work, floundering projects, and the courage to start saying no.
