-Ali B., Global Financial Management Firm

“I just wanted to take a moment to thank you for your time and energy in today’s training workshop. The information you shared today was enlightening and life altering for me!”

-Landon Strawhand, President at Cova Insurance

“Thanks so much for spending time with my team on such an important topic.  We all walked away from your training program with a new approach to using Outlook in a much better way to help us manage our work smarter.  Most of us have been using Outlook to help manage our time for a while… and most of us have not been using it the way it was intended.  Tana did a great job presenting the proper way to use some key features in Outlook, and we all walked away better equipped to manage our time and minimize some serious distractions.  Believe me, the time you spend with Tana will return to you significantly so you don’t want to miss this opportunity!”

-Bill Reynolds, Chief Administrative Officer at Boys and Girls Clubs of Northeast Ohio

“Focus to Evolve has helped limit my work stress while also increasing my productivity in the workplace. Tana was extremely helpful in answering questions; vague or specific. The follow up session was my favorite part as we had time beforehand to live with the tools she taught us to use. Couldn’t recommend enough!”
-Anthony Murino, Private Wealth Associate at AB Bernstein

“I’ve been meaning to call you to tell you that my life has fundamentally changed since I’ve started adopting the mental blueprint and Outlook techniques from this training. Profound! Thank You”

-Darren M. Cady at The Cottage Keepers, Inc.

“I purchased the academy training and already processed to zero in all my email accounts, and I’ve got my zen den set up. I’ve engineered a daily schedule and a huge weight has been lifted off me. Thanks for everything you’re doing & I’m sure I’ll be in touch once I complete the academy training to see what else you have available.”

-Dave Gulas, On Demand Academy Customer

“I really enjoyed this training. I think that the reminder about cognitive switch tax has helped me complete a task beginning to end and stop myself from getting distracted in between. I have been able to tackle some of the more complex tasks at work that previously had been on the back burner. I have also been able to reduce some of my stress of worrying about forgetting important things. THANK YOU!”

-Natalie Weida, Private Wealth Associate at AB Bernstein

"Thank you so much! Because of this training, I am more efficient in the course of the day, just by making better use of Google Calendar. The training helped me cut through the whirlwind of my daily activity, which leaves time to execute important strategies and all without having to layer on task managing software."

-Armando Contreras, President and CEO at United Cerebral Palsy

“I was struggling to stay organized and operate at peak efficiency, personally, professionally, and in my non-profit endeavors.  Focus to Evolve’s methodology, approach, and coaching has been instrumental in helping me re-think how I approach each and every day – I am now in charge and empowered to be so much more productive with a laser focus on accomplishing those things that are most relevant and essential to my upward mobility.  Contact him – you will not be disappointed!”

-Joe Brady, President at Brady Partners and Founder of Unicorns & Polka Dots (non-profit)

“Super super super! I have nothing more to say about this productivity training.  And to think I almost didn’t attend because of how ‘busy’ I am...  wow what a training!”

-Senior Manager at Corrigan Krauss

“I went through this training, and for me it has been hands down the most effective improvement and self-assessment training from the perspectives of professional organization and practical personal development.  Immediately, I have become more efficient and my perspective on priorities has changed.  Most importantly, these teachings have allowed me to substantively tackle volume and workflow in a manner that is positive and impactful.  As he correctly states, multi-tasking is neither a healthy nor an effective approach to work; ultimately it is not a positive skill set. Over the years, my experience has made me a little skeptical of self-improvement programs in the workplace, but this hands down is extremely effective, and I would enthusiastically recommend it.”

-Robert Mullen, Chief Legal Officer at Aultman Health Foundation

“Focus To Evolve provided a world class training for over 40 leaders within our organization. The group to which Jason presented had leadership representation from every level of our company and all are considered the ‘best-of-the-best’ at GPRS. Said differently, this group knows how to get stuff done…or so we thought! Jason’s eye-opening training on workflow organization, mental clarity, and productivity has brought about tremendous change for our team. In the roughly 6 weeks since the training I can still hear the hallways and phone calls reverberating with the impact of what we were taught. I know the ripple effect of this training will bear productivity fruit for our team years from now. I couldn’t be more grateful for this training and can’t recommend it highly enough for other organizations looking to take their team to elite levels of productivity and deep work.”

-Chris​ Moore, Vice President of Operations at GPRS

“I cannot overstate the value and benefit received in the time spent working with Jason on my personal productivity/Outlook Optimization. The process has been an absolute game changer, both personally and professionally. Not only with the tools learned that are available in Outlook, but additionally the power behind the mindset and structure in approaching every day. The increased output has been profound, and real!”

-Stephen West, Principal at AB Bernstein Private Wealth Management

“I thought I was above average in my ‘time management’ good practices, until I met Jason. He taught me that the true power comes not from the volume of what I get done, but the deliberate selection of what I do and the way in which I do things. Jason has taught me how to avoid distractions and greatly increase my ‘in the zone’ activity, which is so deeply rewarding that I gain energy while accomplishing great things! Quality over quantity actually leads to an increase in both!”

-Reed Stith, Senior Growth Advisor at MAGNET: The Manufacturing Advocacy and Growth Network

“Thank you for a very informative, educational Zoom meeting through SHRM.  I am excited to get even more organized!  I have seen a difference even in the last few days.”

-Marie Moser, Founder/President at East Pointe Search Group, Inc.

“I implemented your suggestions almost immediately and it has drastically changed my work dynamic and even my anxiety and stress levels throughout the day.”

-Patient Support Specialist at Options Naturopathic

“‘ONLY work on high value ROI tasks.’ I know; I wish!  Almost every day has overwhelming workloads, and hot issues pop up like whack-a-mole. Then I was introduced to Focus To Evolve.  Finally, a practical method on how to compartmentalize and categorize my workload and unleash the 5x efficiency method of flow state. The impact on my business and quality of life has been nothing short of spectacular.  We now operate at an elevated level of efficiency and effectiveness, and it’s one of our most important strategic advantages.”
-Thomas E., SVP Wealth Advisor at a big 4 Wealth Management firm

“One week in, HUGE success and momentum!”
-Dan Dreiling, Owner at North Point Portfolio Managers

“The results have been dramatic and immediate.”

-Jeremy Seck, Managing Director at Wells Fargo

“Before attending your training session, I had over 3500 emails in my in box and organized my work and projects primarily on paper….. lots of paper- and it was getting to be very difficult to keep track of it all.  Things were getting out of control and my work and productivity was definitely suffering.  Now, I’ve been able to basically go paperless because I’m organizing my projects and duties using the Task area of Microsoft.  I’m able to use the Tasks to move through my projects by being able to manage the multiple emails and actions which need to be completed and tracked.   My inbox is now under 400- and shrinking every day.  More importantly I’m able to better manage the many projects which I’m a part of – and things aren’t slipping through the cracks anymore.  I never thought I would be able to live without the pages and pages of notes which I thought were so important to keeping me on track but it feels so liberating to know that I’ve got everything I need, properly documented, where I can share and plan with others.”

-Carmen Pepe, Customer Success and Carrier Relations at Proformex

“This training was exactly what I was looking for!  Tana did a great job of combining the ‘big ideas’ with the practical application.  Her training helped me change my focus, so I feel more in control of my day instead of being controlled by my inbox.  The best practices that she shared were systematic and logical, but flexible enough to customize as I needed to.  Using her process has helped me get more projects completed and stay on top of my workload.” 

-Melissa Barton-Briggs

“Authentic! Powerful! Tantalizing! In this one-hour virtual program, Tana provided practical strategies for achieving balance. It wasn’t just a technical presentation. While we witnessed a masterful demonstration in Outlook productivity functions, we gained an invaluable lesson in ‘mind shift.’ I would highly recommend investing in the full Focus to Evolve training. You and your team will leave with new ways of thinking, doing, and succeeding.”

-Lisa Panarello, Founder/CEO at Careers Advance

“As a professional who uses multiple tools for organization, it was such a delight to know that I could combine all methods into one easy system! Tana from Focus to Evolve did a great job taking us through the steps needed to organize our lives, be more productive, and preserve time for the things that matter. I definitely recommend Focus to Evolve as a development tool to help your employees be at their best while exponentially exceeding productivity and engagement.”

-Jennifer Galbraith, Chair Membership Committee at Findlay Area HR Association

“Tana delivered this training for Charlottesville SHRM and the content was well organized and extremely useful. I implemented the system Tana taught us and have already seen an improvement in my productivity and organization. I highly recommend this training. In just an hour, Tana showed us how to use Outlook like a second brain.“

-Janie Kast, Programs Chair at Charlottesville SHRM

“I enjoyed the session and felt the knowledge shared was detailed, easy to follow and very useful! I already found a few pockets of flow state and saw an increase in my production today.”

-Rebecca Woodring, CAE, Executive Director at Organization Management Group

“The productivity training made an immediate impact on my daily routine. It gave me the ‘kick in the pants’ that I needed to work as efficiently as possible. This training has ensured that my days are more manageable and opened my eyes to the wonderful world of using Outlook to my advantage! Tana provided me with an insightful, mind-altering, and energized experience. TAKE THE CLASS. You will not regret it!”

-Cassady Smith, Admin/Team Support at Windsor Advisory Group
