‘I remember the first time I put an appointment in my diary to drop my daughter at school. It felt rather strange, as though I wasn’t making most use of my time. I soon realised it’s quite the opposite. I’m now managing my time to make sure I do the things that matter.’

‘The search for optimum efficiency became one big step closer thanks to Cyril’s very real, concrete but also progressive recommendations and lessons. Four years after I took the course, those lessons have become an integral part of not only who I am as a Manager, but who I am as a person.

‘There are not many courses that one takes and keeps as daily carry-on luggage: lessons that make a real difference, lessons that allowed me to be more productive even with the most simple tasks.’

‘It is easy to major on the minors, striving for effectiveness but getting distracted on the little things. Cyril helped me develop the “efficiency habit”, giving me more time to be effective at what really matters. … Doing things right gives me more time on the right things.’

”I estimate we saved between half a million dollars to a million dollars of cost thanks to this journey. As importantly, the increased focus of the team probably accelerated some key projects by about six months. It is hard to quantify the impact on our revenue and performance, but I know it is huge.’

Neil Younger

‘Your approach is sensational! It is extremely practical and challenging, but realistic in its attempts to change behaviours. I saw real results immediately, for myself and my team.

‘I am now more focused on doing more of the right things. I spend more time, about two hours more per day, on the things that matter and disregard the things that don’t. I spend more time with clients and developing key relationships as opposed to mundane administrative and email tasks that were all-consuming.

‘This program has created lasting positive changes on the way I work.’

‘The journey with Cyril delivered an immediate and lasting impact on the sense of purpose of all team members. Clarity of focus on the activities which count has improved group achievement as well as the way team members inter-work with others. Beyond this, improved ways of working have resulted in less intrusion of work into my personal time.’

‘The main impact is that I sleep at night. I didn’t realise the impact of my work on my stress levels. I was working long hours and coming home stressed. Since working with Cyril, I am far less stressed. I sleep at night.

He changed my life!’

‘I couldn’t run my business as effectively and profitably as I do had I not learnt these efficiency and effectiveness skills.

‘I am far more productive than I was, and get SO much more of the important stuff done. Plus, I now use my brain for thinking, strategising and processing important information, not trying to remember what I have to do, so I rarely miss anything and I’m far less stressed, both at work and at home. … I recommend everyone learns and applies these skills!’

Simon Smith

Managing Director

‘While I thought I was a good planner and had balance in my day-to-day work, I have actually dramatically changed the way I manage my time and also priorities. Most rewarding is the personal time I have built into my working week that ensures I spend quality time with my family.

‘I have not had to sacrifice my work commitments, but instead have created time to think about what is strategically most important. … Hopefully this feedback does justice to the full impact Cyril has had upon me.’
