History

Established in 1995.

Tools & Processes

The Effective Edge uses your e-​mail system as a support tool and overlays it with our customized self-​management model to accelerate learning. Participants immediately apply our processing, organizing and maintenance techniques to their personal workflow system to gain control of their projects, priorities, deadlines, and deliverables.

Eliminating the Application Gap

The Effective Edge approach ensures that there is no gap between knowledge and application. Using intense, practical sessions, participants apply key learnings to their own productivity systems. This personal focus helps achieve real-​time results, change behavior, and produce measurable long-​term success.

Long-​Term Retention

The Effective Edge employs a mix of classroom sessions, short weekly reminders and refresher courses to reinforce the workflow principles, assimilate them into the daily routine, and impact life-​long learning.
