Thanks Geoff. I have found the follow-ups valuable. Your strategy of the follow-ups should give you an edge with your competitors -

Hi Geoff, thanks for the fantastic workshop and follow-up emails. I’ve learnt so much and been able to utilise a lot of the tools and knowledge in my work and home life

Your training was one of the best I have been to. I got a lot out of it and it has made a difference to the way I work. I save time and don't waste energy unnecessarily. Thank you.

Thanks Geoff. I really enjoyed the training and your genuine , conversational style! This session was invaluable for me in discovering a number of tools I wasn’t aware off but will certainly now use!

I recently undertook ‘Improving your Personal Productivity’ with Geoff, about which I can’t speak highly enough. Geoff’s exercises and materials are firmly rooted in practicality.
Kate - Local Government
Hi Geoff. Thank you once again for facilitating an exceptional training workshop that has improved my work space and organisational skills.
Susan - Anglicare Vic
Overall I’m very pleased with the Workshop and recommend it for anyone else who might be treading water in the deep end of the disorganised pool. Thanks for your time and energies in helping me to accomplish this!

Hi Geoff, I just wanted to give you some feedback on your fantastic advice in regard to using Microsoft To Do. I have used this App daily since your advice and also passed it on to other people within the organisation and friends who all say the same thing; “why have not I heard of this before and it has changed how organised and efficient I am!” I am currently using it to help write reports and updating progress on jobs, it is like having a secretary on the phone!!! Thank you.

Productivity with Outlook Training

Hi Geoff, I cannot explain how I did my job without using my to-do task list! I use it all day, I constantly flag emails for follow up and only ever seem to have 10 emails in my inbox. I do tend to move tasks about but at least things don't get forgotten. My life has changed, I even use it at home!
Kylie - Local Government Administration
This was very relevant to my current work situation. I gained many new tips working with Outlook. This will certainly help me with my everyday work life, making it easier to manage. Thank you.
Sophie
Hi Geoff, as a result of the Productivity with Outlook Training I did with you, I feel like I have significantly increased my productivity and eliminated a lot of mind clutter which has in turn reduced work stress. I feel a lot more confident in how I manage my time and inbox which overall affects my productivity and mood. Thank you!
Natasha
Hi Geoff, All is going extremely well here. I must say that that was the most useful training that I have ever done. The tasks have completely changed how I save and organise all the small contracts I look after. Thanks.
Phil - Surveillance Officer, Local Government. 2016
Hi Geoff, my To-Do Bar has been amazing. I’m using it and updating every it day. It is a wonderful way to stay on task, but even more exciting is that I can use it to remind me of things 3 months from now! Also turning off the email reminders has been amazing at limiting distractions – I worked on a task for 3 straight hours yesterday without stopping! Thanks.
Evie
Hi Geoff, thanks for the follow up. I’ve moved over to the new world order and I’m loving it! I’ve kept my Outlook set up as per your training and I’m sticking with it! It’s great – it has made such a massive difference to the way I operate…
Claire
Hi Geoff, Seems to be working very well for me. Since the course I don't have any emails that I've received that are still sitting in my inbox and things are being actioned straight away. Also I am using the tasks tab quite regularly and I'm finding that I'm not forgetting things as much as before because items won't go away until they are finished. Thanks for the help, it's been very valuable.

Hi Geoff, thanks again for delivering this training to my team. The training you delivered has really changed the way I do things at work and I no longer feel ruled by my emails! - Emma – Regional Manager, EPA Victoria Sept 2017

Thank you so much Geoff – I think you have changed my life. I came into your workshop feeling incredibly out of control with over 800 emails in my inbox. Tonight I’m going home with 9 – after I delete this one you just sent me!!!! I have saved the links in my reading box and have scheduled time next week to read them! OneNote is a game changer for me too – I hadn’t used it before and have since had a session with the guru here and am feeling completely in control. Thank you, thank you, thank you. I know we will see a lot more of you around council in the months to come.
Leanne
Very useful for all regular users across the organisation. Need to roll this out more broadly to embed those productivitytips and tools in daily work life!

These (Personal Effectiveness Coaching) sessions have absolutely exceeded my expectations and have given me confidence in my management abilities and the inspiration to take control of my career and make change across all areas of my life.
Susan - Manager Local Government Melbourne
The Personal Effectiveness Coaching that I completed with Geoff Prior is by far the best and most effective personal development exercise that I have ever participated in. He helped me work through a very difficult time in my professional life that I am very grateful for. I really believe that he saved my relationship with my one up manager and gave me the tools to better manage my own team. I rate his coaching 10/10!
Peter - Senior Manager
Thanks to the Personal Effectiveness Coaching program, I feel much more confident that I am better prepared to deal with the challenges facing me this year in driving change in the workplace. I was always confident I could succeed but I am now much better at reassuring my superiors that I have things under control and that I am capable and willing to introduce wide reaching changes and improvements to our system.
Gary - Coordinator in Local Government
Beneficial Training – eye opener. I didn’t realise there were so many different personality types. Great knowing my own type. Hopefully interactions with others will improve as a result.
Melinda - Upper Murray Family Care
Great learning experience. Great environment. Very interesting and good opportunity to bond with workmates and learn more about ourselves and others. Would definitely recommend to others!
Thalia - Holmesglen
Thanks Geoff – I have appreciated both the (MBTI Team Building) session, the follow up communications and most notably how the conversation has opened up our team. It’s had a very lovely impact on our team environment.
Karenina Fromhold - Acting Manager - Infrastructure and Sustainability Division
Impressive! Extremely enlightening and valuable resources and information. And it was FUN!!!
Mario - Family Dispute Resolution Practitioner, Upper Murray Family Care
Very interesting subject matter. The most enjoyable Off-Site I've ever attended. Geoff was a "great facilitator!!" 🙂

Really engaging; information rich, but not overwhelming. Thanks Geoff; a great facilitator who was able to bring the whole group's views together and help to understand different viewpoints.
