Summary

The speed of the business is the speed of the leader. It’s time to up your game. One of the most important questions a leader can ask themselves is: “How do I get my teams, my organization to move faster?”That is the challenge that all leaders face. This challenge grows more intense every day. Lead with Speed is the answer. This problem of speed is often disguised by other symptoms, such as “my projects cannot make an accurate prediction of when they will be done” or the stated need of “my teams need to take more risks.” The real need is not reckless risk-taking that will lead to even more problems and finishing even later. The real need is for speed.An organization can only move as quickly as its leaders. Lead with Speed shows you how to get your ideas, plans, and needs disseminated quickly from the top down. Innovation, or genius, is 1 percent inspiration and 99 percent perspiration. Alan Willett provides a comprehensive guide on how to sweat faster. You will learn how to:Develop the mind-set required for leading with speedDiscern the critical differences between slow and fast projectsNotice what you as a leader need to do to create those differencesCreate a targeting system for speedGet whole groups of people working together to create organizational speedLead the exceptional few to be the catalyst for accelerating your organization

    You've heard again and again that getting rich means working hard and being willing to put in long hours, often at the expense of everything else in your life. The 6-Minute Work Day is here to dispel that myth.So many financial gurus, business books, and corporate training seminars teach you to hustle, grind, work harder, start work early, and stay late to be able to move forward in your career—or even just make ends meet.But then you get that promotion or pay off that debt and the hustle starts again. And again. And again.The truth is, you don't need to put in more hours to make more money. In fact, you should put in less—specifically, six minutes. Douglas Vermeeren, an award-winning entrepreneur trainer, has distilled his proven advice into this book to help you cast off your workday, optimize your time and freedom, and dramatically increase your income.In The 6-Minute Work Day, Vermeeren breaks down: why we go to work—and why we don't need to do that to accomplish our goals; what we can really do in six minutes; how we can create and maintain a six-minute workday; and how we can expand on the income streams that our six minutes have generated to gain even more wealth.
