About Greg Chasson
We all want to be more productive in our work and less stuck!After all…- Productivity is often a measure of success, such as making more sales, meeting deadlines, practicing skills to mastery- Producing more often yields more reward, such as better revenue, grades, and leads- Being productive implies a healthy and happy state.The problem is, perfectionism and fear of failure cause us to get stuck, sabotaging our productivity. Truth is, however, most individuals (and most organizations) believe perfectionism is a good thing or underestimate it. But perfectionism is not your friend, and it can be stopped without sacrificing the quality of our work.My “The Productivity Puzzle: Say Goodbye to Perfectionism and Hello to Faster Results” program sets the record straight about perfectionism and why it’s bad for productivity. It provides a practical roadmap for improving our productivity by tackling perfectionism using innovative principles and strategies.After experiencing an inspiring new framework for understanding perfectionism—replete with humor, stories, and digestible evidence-based and theory-informed models and tools—participants will leave feeling refreshed and with a renewed sense of what\'s really important. This will translate to a strong sense of purpose and meaning, informing a powerful new approach to their productivity (contributing to more success, rewards, and a happy and healthy state).After this program, participants will be able to…- Maintain high quality deliverables while still eliminating the negative effects of perfectionism- Increase work output by greatly reducing procrastination- Distinguish between healthy and unhealthy expectations of others- Prevent the inevitable animosity that festers when perfectionism is pushed on others.For more information, please visit or contact me at gchasson[at]gregchasson.com
