boosting lawyer productivity by improving focus
Management consultant Lisa Haneberg has a new book out called Focus Like a Laser Beam: 10 Ways to Do What Matters Most. I’m looking forward to imbibing the insights Haneberg offers up here. I’ve been a regular reader of her blog, Management Craft, for quite some time. She’s got an easy and engaging writing style and I find her thoughts on leadership and business effectiveness highly relevant to my professional focus on helping people energize and optimize their life in the law.
According to the book’s promotional material, in this latest endeavor, Haneberg extols the virtues of focus as a vital business and leadership skill. Launching from the premise that the “ability to focus helps separate the good from the great in all professions and disciplines;” Haneberg looks to the qualities and mechanics of laser beams for instruction and inspiration on developing the focus we need to survive and thrive in today’s fast-paced and rapidly changing business environment.
For more on Haneberg’s book, you can check out an interview and review linked to in a recent 800-CEO-Read blog post. Hanberg has also launched an excellent podcast series called Fireside Chats about Management and Leadership. These “informal conversations with respected business thinkers and bloggers” converge around the “theme of helping people focus and succeed.”
Hey Arnie: Thanks so much for your kind thoughts and for helping me spread the word about the importance of focus!
