The E³ Sequence™
Efficiency – Effectiveness - Excellence

The E³ Sequence™ is a series of progressively layered strategic, just-in-time, mix-and
match programs to help the optimization of your workforce. Each program employs a blended learning experience utilizing classroom presentations, consulting and real-time desk side coaching.

The E³ Sequence of offerings are designed to help individuals maximize their efficiency
and effectiveness in support of company goals. Our approach helps individuals get the routine work accomplished quickly, focuses them on getting the high value work done, and guides them to inculcate these changes into their continuing work processes.

E¹ - urEca Program™ – Efficiency - Getting work done with less effort.

A two day program that provides an introduction to the fundamental principles of managing the flow, filing and retrieval of work and information.

It is a system to get people in control of their worklife.

• Remove waste
• Retrieve information
• Regain control

In this program, participants will learn to manage the information retrieval points for which they are responsible. This includes physical files, personal computer drives, internet bookmarks, an enhanced understanding of share drives, and shared physical resources. They will also learn to develop personal operating policies for managing routine workflow. This includes managing of information inputs (including email), making workflow decisions, and managing work in progress maximizing their company’s technology (Outlook® , Lotus Notes®, etc.). The organization gains consistency of deliverables, shorter cycle times in decision making, less stress, and replicable group standards.

E² - Emerging Leaders™ – Effectiveness - Getting more done with the same effort.

A two day program for the people that have been identified as the new generation of leaders who must transition from being individual contributors to leveraging other people’s skills.

Typically, businesses invest in their emerging leaders by sending them to stand alone programs such as time management, project planning, delegation, meeting management, etc. We help them integrate and apply those skill sets within the context of their workplace and worklife by identifying their key business objectives and coaching them into action. The organization gets the manager up to speed faster, leveraged technology use, greater group cohesiveness, and a manager with less need to micromanage.

E³ - Executive Excellence – Maximizing efforts for competitive advantage.

A two day coaching program that is designed for the busy executive whose schedule and issues are not appropriate for a group session. This program covers all the principles that are in the E1- urEca Program™ and E2- Emerging Leaders™ offerings.

This is an intensive one-on-one consultative coaching program that spans two days. The first day is a full day at the executive’s office during which the core principles are presented in a highly interactive session. The executive's assistant could be involved in a portion of that session. The remaining day (or two half-days) will apply the principles to Enterprise Level Business Objectives, and to the unique challenges and issues facing the executive
