Rethinking Operational Efficiency with Nick Sonnenberg

What's Next! with Tiffani Bova

Welcome to the What's Next! Podcast with Tiffani Bova.

This week I’m thrilled to bring you an episode of What’s Next! Podcast with Nick Sonnenberg.

Nick Sonnenberg is an entrepreneur, WSJ Bestselling Author, Inc. columnist, and guest lecturer at Columbia University. He’s the Founder and CEO of Leverage, a leading operational efficiency consultancy that helps companies implement the CPR Business Efficiency Framework defined in Nick’s book, Come Up for Air.

Before founding Leverage, Nick spent eight years working as a high-frequency trader on Wall Street, where he developed a love for efficiency.

THIS EPISODE IS PERFECT FOR… leaders who want to pinpoint areas of inefficiency in their organizations.

TODAY’S MAIN MESSAGE… the lack of organized systems and clear training on tools is a source of inefficiency for many companies but isn’t something that is given much attention. Creating order across the organization creates valuable time - as much as an extra business day per week - for more focused and productive work.

WHAT I LOVE MOST… Nick’s strategy to view the time on a calendar like a heat map. Instead of doling out each hour equally, Nick suggests identifying which times are most productive and allocating those to the things that require the most brain power.
