Testimonials
Xerox Canada engaged Chris Cavanagh after encountering her book, "Thinking Outside the Inbox", which shares compelling research data to underscore the business case that it is worth the effort for organizations, departments and individuals to tackle the problem of email productivity. Quantitatively, she argues that an hour of payroll (or personal) time can be redirected back to meaningful activities if in-boxes are reduced to a proper size. Qualitatively, she addresses the productivity and risk-management benefits of better email habits. Chris Cavanagh helped facilitate a brainstorming session at Xerox Canada, which session contributed significantly towards development and launch of Xerox Canada's "Take Back the Hour" workplace email initiative, which has been in place since Spring 2007.

As the CEO of a member association, I worked closely with Chris to craft an agenda for our Board strategic planning session that would stimulate discussion and result in action steps. Chris facilitated the session and all of our objectives were reached: the conversation was lively and I got the necessary direction from my Board on how and where to focus resources. J. Epstein, JD, CEO

Chris has been instrumental in helping my student teams craft their strong analytic work into a sellable package. Without her advice, much of their good work might have gone unappreciated. Chris is incredibly capable at helping teams make their case.
