New “Meeting Slasher™” Offerings from Uncommon Clarity, Inc., September 2010

PRESS RELEASE |
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
|
Easthampton, Massachusetts - Ann Latham, a.k.a., The Meeting Slasher™, announces new offerings to help organizations save hours every week. An audio seminar, Meeting Mastery - How to Slash Meeting Times in Half and Get Better Results and its companion, The Meeting Mastery Handbook, join her workshop and consulting services to help clients make dramatic improvements in productivity by making their meetings more effective.
According to Latham, improving meetings is the single biggest opportunity for many organizations to save money. "I know many executives, managers, and employees who average 10, 20, even 30 hours a week in meetings," says Latham. "At that rate, 25-75% of employees are effectively employed just to attend meetings. Imagine the ROI of cutting those meetings in half!" Latham goes on to point out that with wasteful meetings topping the complaint list everywhere, making improvements not only provides huge value, it is hugely appreciated. "It isn't often you can find such a big improvement project that everyone embraces." For more information about these offerings, visit TheMeetingSlasher.com or contact Ann Latham at 413-527-3737 or .(JavaScript must be enabled to view this email address).
Ann Latham is a performance improvement expert, consultant, and president of Uncommon Clarity, Inc., a firm that helps companies get better results faster. She is also the author of Clear Thoughts - Pragmatic Gems of Better Business Thinking. For more information about Ann, visit www.uncommonclarity.com.
