"An hour of planning can save you 10 hours of doing."

Dale Carnegie

Have you heard that hard work will make you successful?

It’s one of the great fallacies of our time since, like me, I bet you know plenty of people who work hard but have little to show for it.

What’s really required is SMART work – and there’s a big difference…

Our guest today is Nick Sonnenberg, the former Wall Street executive turned operational efficiency expert – and smart work is his superpower. As Founder and CEO of Leverage, Nick has worked with organizations of all sizes and across all industries, from high-growth startups to the Fortune 10.

Nick’s CPR® Business Efficiency Framework results in greater output, less stress, happier employees, and the potential to gain an extra full day per week in productivity per person – just by using the right tools in the right way, at the right time.

Nick is also an Inc. columnist, guest lecturer at Columbia University, and the Wall Street Journal bestselling author of Come Up for Air: How Teams Can Leverage Systems and Tools to Stop Drowning in Work.

In this episode:

• How Nick’s role on Wall Street made him realize what was missing most from his life
• The biggest thing holding businesses back from true growth
• How to create - and leverage - intellectual property; and
• What you can do to become an efficiency expert right now.
