Overview
With the advent of smartphones, tablets, and other devices which keep us constantly connect, keeping focus has become an ever-present problem in both business AND in life. When brains are bombarded by these “weapons of mass distraction,” people are increasingly incapable of sustaining focus on what’s important. This impacts learning, parenting, prioritizing and leading because nobody can sit still and pay attention.
In One Ear and Out the Other is a follow-up (and somewhat of a sequel) to McCormack’s first book Brief (2014) which outlines McCormack’s proven, step-by-step approach to clear, concise, and effective communication. But since 2014, technology has advanced further and been more integrated into our everyday lives. Managers are pulled in a dozen different directions every minute. As a result, attention spans have actually gotten shorter and business issues often go unaddressed because of a lack of time and a lack of ability to focus on everything that needs attention. In One Ear will tackle this issue by teaching managers and leaders how to help themselves and others how to hone their focusing skills.
