New workshops; Growco; The 5; Working with Operators; Supercharged Coaching | New at Predictable Success 

Changes here at Predictable Success continue apace.First, the new COO breezed in and demanded an actual working space (that meant getting real desks for us both – the battered old roll-top at which I wrote both ‘Predictable Success’ and ‘The Synergist has been retired, as you can see at right). Then the upstart pulled an all-nighter to automate something I’d been spending (ok, wasting) 45 minutes a day banging out manually. Oh, the audacity of youth. More exciting for you, we’ve finally been able to implement two great new initiatives that we’ve been talking about for months – wholly revamped workshops, and the Predictable Success Licensed Practitioner Program (details below). Time will tell if the wunderkind can keep this pace up (I’m guessing he can – that’s what a 30-year age difference does). I’ll keep you posted one way or the other:

New Workshop Formats: San Francisco Feb 21 Boston, March 21 The new workshop format we’re piloting  has been such a big hit (35 people in Atlanta alone) that we’re bringing it to two new venues. We’ve split the previous all-day workshop into two half-days: Predictable Success 101 (am) & Predictable Success 202 (pm). They’re on the same day, and you can choose to attend either, or both (there’s a discount if you attend both). And as before, we’ve substantially discounted additional attendees from the same organization to encourage you to bring your team. Each half-day session is just $250 per person ($100 for each additional attendee from the same organization). Details of the new workshops are here Registration is here

Attend: Growco: The conference for growing businesses Inc magazine runs what is in my mind the best conference for growing businesses. It’s called ‘Growco‘, and this year I’m co-keynoting with Richard Branson (CEO, Virgin Group) and John Mackey (CEO, Whole Foods). I’d love for you to attend – so I’ve snagged a $300 discount for you. Full details are here.
