Teknion’s Maxine Mann on Productivity and Decision-making

Recently Maxine Mann, Teknion’s President, U.S. Markets answered a few questions for Fortune’s “Ideas from the Brightest Minds in Business” blog.

Her answers to questions about productivity and decision-making go to the core of what it means to run a successful business in this modern era.  She discusses the value of team-work when there are tough decisions to be made, and finds herself using technology as a key productivity tool to keep track of  client relationships.

“Being in a client-focused business, it is especially important to be able to go back and search my records. I always want to make sure I have a way to be on top of the entire relationship, which means understanding our history with them in order to make the best decisions and provide the best counsel.”
