Ruthless Productivity. How to get one day back per week. Online Program.
Fixed program dates or flexible start options for personnel within the same company
Time, Task, and Stress Management
Get one day per week back by participating in my new Ruthless Productivity online program.
I have consulted with senior managers, project managers, estimators, supervisors, and business leaders in the construction industry and related trade services for well over a decade.
Given how tight margins are, businesses need to increase the productivity of their people. But often, this comes with longer days, working evenings and weekends, stress and overwhelm, bouncing from one fire to another, little or no work-life balance, and often feeling behind. The effect is frequently seen in lowered productivity, mental health conditions, with higher absenteeism and increased employee turnover.
In my coaching work, I reverse those effects. Leaders produce higher quality work in less time; stress and overwhelm dissipate and they become happier; work and out-of-work relationships improve; they gain clearer boundaries with a greater work-life balance. They also become more effective at delegation, planning, and coordinating their team's efforts.

Here’s what others have experienced:
Ray's coaching me in my organisational and time management skills has got me through these challenging COVID times...This has included more effective delegation, better task prioritisation, and being able to manage in a more controlled fashion. Darren Cross – Service Manager. Butterfields Services (Aust) Pty Ltd.
By putting simple ideas in place, we saved hours each week. The company was at a point of desperation but within 2 short weeks of having Ray on board, things changed dramatically. Senior Administrator - Construction
I have been working with Ray for 5 weeks now and my time management was hopeless when I started, I was working all over the place and right around the clock with no family life. Just in 5 short weeks, I have decreased my working hours from 80 hours per week to 65 hours per week. I have been able to learn how to plan my days and get more productivity out of my day along with being able to most importantly spend more time with my family. Ben Mamudov - Managing Director. Nationwide Appliance Repairs
And as a value sidenote…
- If you pay an employee $150,000 per annum and they have a day made available per week (which is common in my work), that amounts to $30,000 per annum.
- If that one day was used to run, as one project manager did, an additional project valued at 25MIL, the profit return could be around 1MIL.
- And, if you have a good team member, and you make their work more enjoyable and productive through the decrease of overwhelm and stress, this helps keep them for the longer term, saving staff turnover costs with a broader positive impact on the workplace culture.
The payback can be significant.
