★★★★★ 5/5

I have been running a business for 10 years or so. One of the challenges I have is that as I move through my career my habits have become calcified and a little stuck in their ways... after a while you become a little stuck in a rut, often without realising. Running a business is hard, its a constant-endless juggling act and getting perspective on whats important is a challenge. This is especially true for those of us who are 'boss-less' I attended a session facilitated by Marcus and his team and it was a transformation for me in breaking some of these bad habits. Everyday, now I create space to reflect and prioritise my tasks for the day and its helped me become more strict with what I focus on. My notepad was full and since then I've become a prioritisation beast! I am sending the rest of my team on the course as I know they will also benefit. I would recommend this to anyone at any point in their career.
