Greetings
from Cambodia! We would like to express our sincere thanks to you for
providing us a great training on the organized meeting planner...
Through the training, we have been achieving tremendous success in
organizing two regional workshops which we admitted it is the result of
the important experiences got from the training. Ms. Sokha Thim Secretary, Centers for Disease Control,
Cambodia
...my
performance evaluation this year I was told that if my organizational
skills did not improve, my job would be in jeopardy. I just had my
mid-year review and was told that I am now an A+ performer and my boss
is really pleased with my improvement. ... you don't give me some vague
theories or ideas of how to be organized -- you tell me what to do with
my stuff! I'm definitely not a born organized person, but I've
discovered that I CAN BE TAUGHT! GF
I just heard you in San Jose - you are amazing - I wish you would have
talked all week. Nova Simpson
Kaiser Permanente
I'll keep my eye out for other speaking engagements for you! I don't do
this for just anyone ...you are just so amazing I want to share you with
everyone I know! You deserve all the kudos you can get! You've helped
put me on my path of PURGING! ... You just have a way of putting it that
made me think..."this is ridiculous, she's right. It's time to stop the
insanity!" I refer to The Time Management Memory Jogger daily! Linda Bruns National Sales Manager, Shepard
Exposition Services
I have been to several workshops and seminars on time management,
productivity and reducing stress, but your workshop was the best. I
can't believe you presented so much useful information in such a short
amount of time. I hope one day I can take the complete workshop. Pat Wheeler,
Communications Director, Catholics in Alliance for the Common Good
The productivity and organization tactics I learned in Peggy's seminar
immediately inspired me to think differently about how I process and
file information. I am now more efficient about reducing clutter on my
desk and using my work time more productively. She really opened my eyes
about how much time gets wasted on unproductive tasks! Kevin L McCormick Manager, HR and Diversity
Communications
DaimlerChrysler Corporation
Peggy's presentation [MPI Houston] offered more tips that I can actually
use than anything else I've seen, and it only took an hour. Michelle Lowther National Account Manager
ConferenceDirect
My assistant and I were at your seminar in Springfield, IL [Illinois
Society of Association Executives]. We've been excited ever since and
are getting organized so we can think out of the box and have more time,
while at the same time learn our new responsibilities. Gaye E. Kick Director of Administration, ACEC-Illinois
...the session that impacted me most was Peggy Duncan’s presentation
“Find Time to Lead.” Briefly, her message was “get organized, streamline
processes and use the right technology.” Jeffrey W. Rasco, CMP
Technology Columnist, The Meeting Professional, the official magazine of
Meeting Professionals International
Peggy, thank
you so much for an absolutely fabulous seminar at the Long Beach HSMAI
conference. The tips you shared and your book are absolutely wonderful.
It [Inbox] is looking very good and I thank you for the best night's
sleep I've had in a long while. Sharlene Thompson,
Director of Special Events, San Diego Natural History Museum
It has been just over a week since your presentation at the USTA event
in Atlanta...I really appreciate your insight and humor as it relates to
the topic of making work, and life, a little bit less cluttered by
becoming more organized. I hope you receive an invitation to come back
to future USTA events. Keith E. Bell Director of Diversity & Community
Development
USTA Intermountain Section
Peggy you were a hit with ISES Atlanta! I’ve gotten several emails
asking when we could have you come back. Thank you so much – your
presentation was amazing and you have started our new year off with a
bang for ISES Atlanta – we can’t wait to have you back! Qualena Odom-Royes, CSEP Principal Event Planner
Peggy, thank you for helping me with the clutter and helping with the
pain. I love your book. Anastasia Rivers US Virgin Islands, St. Croix
This class is the most essential class I needed in the Office
Professional Certification training program at Georgia Tech. I highly
recommend it and believe it deserves the status of being one of the
required courses in the program. Ms. Duncan is excellent! Janet Myrick Georgia Institute of Technology
... I’m a work in progress… and so far, the tips you shared in your Time
Management session at EWomenNetwork.com are priceless…especially because
you put them into steps that are easy to understand and implement. Renate Kippen Kippen Enterprises, Inc.
Workshop:
Get Organized At Work
If clutter is
taking over your desk, computer,
or mind, make it stop!
Save one to two hours
a day
by getting organized!
If you’re experiencing more stress as your
responsibilities increase, and time runs out long before
your workload, work hard and smart instead
of working hard and long.
If you're always looking for
something, getting half-way
somewhere and having to go back,
procrastinating, or always
asking others to help you find
something, you're wasting hours
that could be better spent doing
something you love.
Well,
the garbage man better be REALLY
strong this week….cleaned
out a LOT of stuff. Have started
getting the files in
order, but my business is so paper intensive
that I still
have a ways to go. However, I can really see the
benefits
already!!!!! Which makes me even more motivated
to get it
done. THANKS!!! Liz
Hegarty,
CPA, CFP, CDFA
