Managing the flow of information – whatever the source
– is the key to being effective at work and in your
life. All too often, we feel as if we are being bombarded
with information – from cascading paper piles, to overflowing
e-mail in-boxes, to our chaotic electronic filing system and
more. The information that crosses our mental and physical
thresholds is there to support our goals, objectives, and
priorities. But does it?
How do you hold true to your vision and still integrate the
changing economic environment, the bold new opportunities,
the constant demands of your customers, and the myriad of
other challenges? How do you best manage all of that new information,
incorporate it into your overall game plan and keep your eye
on the ball while staying one step ahead of your competition?
Evaluate and adjust. Together, we will confirm your vision,
assess where you currently are and then design and implement
“course corrections” that may be needed. Without
the ability to understand, use, and manage information, understanding
how and when the world is changing becomes very difficult—making
decision making challenging and frustrating.
Mise En Place can help you and/or your entire team(s) produce
meaningful results, improve team and individual performance,
and enhance the quality of ones professional, and by default
personal, lives. Our Effectiveness Experts are trained to
listen, to observe, and to customize the processes and tools
that are being implemented to meet individual needs. We seek
to elicit solutions and strategies from our clients; and to
tap into their natural creativity and resourcefulness. Ultimately,
we want to provide the support to enhance the skills, resources,
and creativity that you already have.
Contact
Mise En Place for more information. We look forward to hearing
from you!

Bio—Ann Michael Henry |
Ann Michael spent more than a dozen years building
her expertise in training, sales, and sales management. As
a top producing sales executive, being organized and “ready
for anything” was instrumental to her success. As a
result and years of best practices trainings, she is now a
master of the 80/20 principle. Ann Michael shares her real
life successes, experiences, and lessons, along with industry
best practices with executives in an effort to get them on
track and keep them there no matter what next “to do”
gets thrown at them.
As a professional speaker, co-author of three books on productivity,
and founder of Mise En Place, effectiveness and productivity
improvement consulting firm, Ann Michael Henry is a master
at helping business professionals focus on their business,
not just in it. Busy professionals have constant demands put
on them each day making for a potentially stressful work environment.
By taking control of how information is management and delivered
via e-mail, paper, phone messages, and even drop-in visits,
professionals can breathe easier and prioritize better. Information
is meant to flow, to move, to be available when needed and
to move on when it’s not. Effectiveness Experts at Mise
En Place train, coach, and mentor on the four cornerstones
of an effective work environment—workload management,
paper management, e-mail management, and electronic information
management.
Some of the most common benefits clients have reaped include
(but are not limited to): identify, clarify, communicate,
and effectively work priorities; manage information better
to support priorities; retrieve information on-demand; reduce
duplication of efforts; improve decision-making speed, processes,
and skills. Mise En Place provides professionals and their
teams—anywhere within a business—the ability to
utilize and master their time, energy, resources, and creativity
more effectively. This, path to productivity ensures that
time spent at work is quality, productive time; decreases
stress and anxiety; improves ability to follow up and follow
through on assignments and increased employee contribution
to the bottom-line results of your organization.
Mise En Place and its team of Effectiveness Experts help
individual professionals as well as entire departments and
teams master the flow of information. Our objective –
get you the information you need to support your priorities,
the clarity to focus on the task at hand, and the ability
to effectively execute your goals and objectives. Bottom line,
we increase productivity. We focus on four core areas:
- Effective workload management
- Effective paper management
- Effective e-mail management
- Effective e-document
management
Mise En Place’s unique approach has been specifically
designed so that we work together with our client. We have
created a personalized, sustainable, flexible, and scalable
process that ensures a person or team of people have the information
they need so that they can stay focused, organized, and productive
no matter what challenges they face.
It boils down to being the best at what you do. You will
become very successful at keeping all the balls in the air
while being in control, staying calm, feeling confident, and
functioning with a clear mind. At the same time, you’ll
know that no task or challenge is too big to tackle—because
you’ve mastered important organizational skills—you
have a path to productivity®.
