Website Redesign
As you may have noticed, this website has undergone a significant redesign. This shift happens to reflect the way the firm has grown in the past several years.
Framework started as a company focused on Business Process Reengineering and culture change to North American clients. Over time, its work in the Caribbean grew to the point where it’s international work became the primary focus. As this happened, the problem of knowledge worker productivity grew in importance and became one of the two primary focuses of the company.
The site has been updated to reflect these twin areas and we hope it gives you a clearer picture of the work we do with our clients.
A Home for Total Task Schedulers
One of the big gaps I have found in the time-based productivity world is the lack of help in the area of Total Task Scheduling. (If you are a graduate of NewHabits Foundations you may recognize this persona as a Green Belt in Scheduling.)
This is being remedied.
I’m finally returning to a commitment I made when I finished my book to create such a space – and it will be launched soon in the form of Schedule U – A School for Scheduling Everything. At the moment it exists as a placeholder where you can sign up for early notification when it goes live.
You may know that I do work for SkedPal, an auto-scheduling program. However, there are other solutions out there in the world which perform a similar function, plus people who have no interest in using an app for this function. This website will serve everyone, regardless of the tools they use.
Upon its launch, it will occupy a unique space which is brand new, hopefully helping many who looking for assistance in this area. The primary offering will be a 12 day training called “A Course in Scheduling” which will be offered for free.
A New Study Is Being Launched (updated)
You may be familiar with our 2007 study – “The Trinidadian Executive in Jamaica.” It remains the standard in practical, cross-Caribbean studies of cultural differences experienced by working professionals. (Download a copy here.)
On the heels of its success we are launching a new study: The Jamaican Professional in Trinidad.
If you are willing to be interviewed and/or surveyed anonymously, or know someone who might be, do let me know here.
Once again, the intent is not to generate academic data. We intend the final result to be a useful companion for Jamaican professionals hoping to make an effective transition to living and working in the twin-island republic.
