The Work Smarter Live Better program has been one of the most transformational for me personally and professionally. It has helped me to manage breadth, workloads and most importantly connect more deeply with my family and what’s important to me.

I think this program is completely transformational - from a personal point of view, on a business front, in every way. I couldn't rate it higher.

how we work
what Your journey with us looks like
There is no precise journey with Work Smarter: Live Better, and we are always happy to customise our approach to suit your needs.
The Books
The journey often starts with someone in the leadership team, or even the CEO, reading the WSLB book.
Keynote
From there we will run a fun and engaging WORKSHOP or KEYNOTE session to inspire your team and enable everyone to walk away with two to three very practical things they can apply straight away.
Leaders Intensive
We then engage the leadership team with our LEADERS INTENSIVE course, a hands-on training journey to help them regain control of their workload, excel at work and have a great life at home
Team Rollout
We give your team leaders the skills they need to become WSLB CHAMPIONS to help the whole company along the next part of the journey. With the help of your WSLB champions, the TEAM ROLL-OUT brings your entire staff up to full speed!
I honestly didn’t think it would make such a difference, but here I am six months later feeling very lucky that I decided to give it a go. It’s changed my life.
I ended up changing so many things: prioritising my scarce time on large commercial opportunities, saying no to things that didn’t have long term impact, spending time with my ageing parents each week, doing exercise daily, eating healthy, appreciating that we only have 4000 weeks to live and each one counts…and the list goes on.
I’ve already hit my professional/commercial goals and am close to hitting my personal/fitness goal – and there’s still four months of the year left!

about us
Bonjour, I’m Cyril.
In short, we help busy leaders and their team regain control of their workload, deliver on their priorities and get home early to their families.
As you will guess from my accent if we meet, I am originally from France. In 2001 my wife and I emigrated to Australia. So this makes me a half French half Australian. I support the French team when it comes to football but I am a big fan of Australia when it comes to the beauty of its outdoors and the friendliness of the people.
