Work slows down not because people aren’t capable — but because decisions drag, ownership is fuzzy, and processes quietly break down.
This live session shows you how to spot where work gets stuck — and how to remove the friction that’s draining time, energy, and momentum from your team.

This live session shows you how to spot where work gets stuck — and how to remove the friction that’s draining time, energy, and momentum from your team.
This session is for you if…
• Your team is busy, but progress feels slower than it should
• You’re constantly pulled back into decisions you thought were done
• Projects stall because “alignment” isn’t as clear as it sounds
• You want better execution without adding more tools, meetings, or pressure
(And yes — this applies whether you lead 3 people or 300.)

This Is a LIVE Hands-On Workshop
This is a LIVE, hands-on workshop
We’re not talking about friction.
We’re eliminating them — live, together.
In this session you'll learn how high-performing leaders design:
• decisions that don’t bounce back
• ownership that creates buy-in
• processes that actually flow
Can’t attend live?
No problem — the full workshop recording + tools are included.

Here’s how we’ll do it
Here’s how we’ll do it

First, we use the The Friction Triangle™ to identify where friction is hiding in your workflow across three core areas:
Most leaders biggest frictions are found in: 1. Decisions 2. Ownership & Buy-In and 3. Process Gaps.
Removing friction creates Leadership Leverage — more output, less effort.

Next, we shift into Decision Design
Taking too long to make a decision drains your time and energy. Not to mention slow you down.
You’ll learn:
Taking too long to make a decision drains your time and energy. Not to mention slow you down.
You’ll learn:
- A simple prioritisation method for cutting through overwhelm
- How to design decisions so they don’t keep coming back to you
- When to decide, delegate, defer — and why most leaders get this wrong
filter_3
Then, we utilise Co-Delegation
Say goodbye to micromanaging and hello to buy-in as your team taking on ownership without push back.
You’ll work through:
Say goodbye to micromanaging and hello to buy-in as your team taking on ownership without push back.
You’ll work through:
- Defining what “successful execution” actually looks like
- How to surface foreseeable obstacles before they slow things down
- Simple “if this, then that” plans to keep momentum moving
filter_4
Finally, we attack Process Reinvention
How to fix workflows that quietly waste hours every week.
You’ll learn:
How to fix workflows that quietly waste hours every week.
You’ll learn:
- How to map a process as it really works (not how it’s supposed to)
- How to simplify, remove, or redesign steps that cause friction
- A high-stakes decision filter used by leaders to avoid over-engineering
By the end of this session, you’ll have:
- Clear visibility on where friction is costing you time
- Practical tools you can immediately apply with your team
- One workflow redesigned for smoother execution
- A repeatable way to remove friction from future projects
This isn’t theory. It’s leader-level leverage.

Hey! I’m Nils Vesk 👋
Hey! I’m Nils Vesk 👋
I’ve spent more than two decades helping leaders make better decisions under uncertainty — without overcomplicating things.
My focus isn’t prediction.
It’s better thinking.
Since 2001, I’ve worked with leaders and teams in 18 countries, including organisations like HP, Nestlé, Pfizer, Nike, Microsoft, IBM and many more — helping them think more clearly, act earlier and move faster.
I’ve written four books on innovation, leadership and problem‑solving, including The Reinvention Sprint and Ideas With Legs, and I’ve delivered keynotes to thousands of managers, executives and project leaders who want results without burning out.
And here’s what I’ve learned:
The problem isn’t that leaders lack skills.
It’s that their workflows are full of hidden friction.
When decisions drag, ownership is fuzzy and processes are broken or missing, everything slows down. But when teams have clarity — on who decides what, who owns what, and how work actually flows — everything speeds up. Output rises. Stress drops. Bottlenecks disappear.
It’s not magic. It’s good leadership leverage.
That’s why I created The Leader’s Workflow Workshop™ — a live session designed to help leaders remove hidden friction, reclaim their time and create sustainable momentum. If you want to get more done with less pushback, this session will give you the tools to make it happen..
