Build Your Personal Visibility System

Price: $99
Duration: 2 hours
Format: Online or In-Person

Stop guessing, convincing others that your are busy, and making promises (willing or unwilling) you can't keep. See YOUR work, YOUR capacity, and YOUR boundaries. And then say yes with confidence.

See it, share it, understand it.

Knowing why invisible work breaks you isn't enough. You need to fix it.

In this hands-on workshop, you'll build YOUR personal visibility system...whether you're an individual contributor, a manager, or a leader. No, one size does not fit all. Your work, your team, what you need to know right now...your reality mattters.

You'll walk out with:

  • A real board (digital or physical) that actually works for you

  • Honest understanding of your actual capacity

  • A system you can implement tonight

  • Practical boundaries based on reality, not guilt

  • Patterns you've never seen before

Who Should Attend

  • Anyone exhausted by invisible commitments

  • Managers who hate their status meetings

  • Teams wanting to reduce interruptions

  • Leaders ready to lead differently

  • People ready to actually change how they work

Facilitators

Jim Benson & Tonianne DeMaria
Modus Institute
Authors of Personal Kanban and humanework.substack.com and founders of Modus Institute.
