Thrive in the attention economy
"Information consumes the attention of its recipients.
Hence, a wealth of information creates a poverty of attention."
- Herbert Simon
"Weapons of mass distraction" are all around us.
Too much information. Too many choices. Addictive devices and apps. Disruptive technologies. Sensational fake news. All of these things compete for our personal attention, insidiously killing our ability to focus on what should be most important to us.
At the same time, as business professionals, we have a need to capture and maximize attention from likewise distracted prospects, clients, employers and employees in order to achieve our strategic business and career goals. Therein lies our modern day dilemma and social paradox.
Welcome to the "Attention Economy."
It's time to focus. Because in a noisy, distracted world, he/she who focuses, wins big.

Harness and Channel Our Own Attention:
In a distracted world where multi-tasking is the norm, our inability to focus has become a conditioned state - an unintended consequence of our connected world. As a result, innovation, productivity, health and relationships suffer. Get back on track. Become a lifelong learner and ensure you maximize your skills to stay relevant in a changing job market. Regain and reinforce critical, uniquely human traits that will prove invaluable in the future of work. Learn to focus on developing the habits necessary to enjoy a healthy and happy modern lifestyle.
