Programs
SUPERCOMPETENT™
The Six Keys to Perform at Your Productive Best

Based on Laura's latest business book of the same title (Wiley, 2010), this is her program on how high potentials can achieve peak performance in the workplace. The new mantra is "buckle down!" These times are about a return to quality rather than quantity; all of us must learn to be competent—and not just plain, old-fashioned competent, but SuperCompetent®.

In this competitive economy, just being able to do your job is no longer enough. Competence is expected; you've got to be SuperCompetent to get an edge.

Whether you're an employee, an entrepreneur, a team leader, or all of the above, SuperCompetent will give you proven methods to reach your and your team's maximum potential and achieve breakthrough results. You'll get to your productive best by mastering her six keys to peak performance. SuperCompetency is not about mantras but about mindsets. SuperCompetent will transform how you think. Let Laura Stack, The Productivity Pro®, give you a clear and practical system for achieving Maximum Results in Minimum Time®.

YOU Can Be a Productivity Pro®!

This is Laura's flagship keynote that combines key concepts from her multiple books and 17 years of experience into a comprehensive 45 to 75-minute presentation. Time management, prioritization, scheduling, concentration, organization, email, workflow, processing, and systems are all covered to help your attendees achieve Maximum Results in Minimum Time®. Your participants will gain scores of new ideas from "The Productivity Pro"® on increasing output without increasing effort and performing at their matchless best! This interactive, entertaining, high-energy program involves multiple segments customized to your group, multi-media, singing, and an audience-participation game show!

"Find More Time: How to Get Things Done at Home, Organize Your Life, and Feel and Feel Great about It"

Based on Laura's book of the same title (Broadway Books, 2006), this is her work/life balance keynote that adds in the element of your personal life. Perfect for groups that want to take a more holistic approach to productivity in life, not simply work. Successful people don't want to trade personal satisfaction for professional achievement; they know high performance depends on both. Professionals must be able to balance work and family without sacrificing either. This encouraging, lively, results-oriented keynote offers key principles and techniques to help professionals eliminate obstacles to success; work smarter at work; and balance time across their lives. Perfect for audiences of busy men and women who work hard all day and go home to-the second shift-the job they don't get paid for. Learn to match time to values while juggling work, kids, chores, volunteering, errands, and household projects. Laura's ideas will help you improve your productivity at home, get more done than ever before, and have more time to enjoy your life.

"Leave the Office Earlier"
How to Get More Done in Less Time...and Feel Great About It

Based on Laura's bestselling book of the same title (Broadway Books, 2004), this is her flagship time management keynote on how to be more productive at work, so you can achieve the same results in less time and leave the office earlier. In this high-energy, hysterical presentation, Laura shows you how to keep technology from controlling your time; stay focused and concentrate; communicate with your team and boss to improve personal productivity; plug productivity leaks in your day; build consistent personal routines; eliminate annoying time wasters; and improve your personal efficiency. Attendees leave the program laughing and saying, "Oh my goodness, she was looking over my shoulder! Everything she modeled I'm doing!" The ideas in this innovative and thought-provoking program will allow you to reduce the number of hours you work each week without compromising output.

"The Exhaustion Cure"
UP Your Energy From LOW to GO in 21 Days

Based on Laura's book of the same title (Broadway Books, 2008), this is her energy speech on how to be productive when you can't pick yourself up off the couch. Lack of energy is a common complaint at work and home, and many people sleepwalk through the day, fuzzyheaded and lethargic. Nothing sounds more attractive than putting your head down on your desk for a quick nap. How can you possibly begin that big project requiring high levels of creativity and concentration? If the mere thought of having more energy leaves you totally exhausted, you need this program! Perfect for the pooped. You can know all the productivity tips in the world, but nothing will work if you don't have the energy to give 100 percent. Laura boosts your energy with physiological strategies (such as diet, exercise, and sleep), behavioral strategies (such as tolerations, relaxation, and pacing), and environmental strategies (such as lighting, noise, and clutter). Discover the Energy Bandits that sap your energy every day and learn to fight back with Energy Boosters.
