Higgins app for iPhone and iPad

Higgins PA (Personal Assistant) is THE ultimate tool for every successful manager
Most of us managers spend a great deal of our time in meetings. Meetings with team members, directors, other managers, customers, suppliers, you name it. For a lot of those managers it is difficult to pay attention to the meeting and in the same time note commitments and especially action items in order to follow up efficiently. With Higgins PA you can!
A meeting can vary from a formal meeting to just a coffee machine talk. In most effective meetings you end up with action items and decisions. These action items require action and follow up. Checking up on the actions en taking care that everything is done consumes a great deal of you time.
Moving things forward and creating success that is what we wish to accomplish. Therefor we need to be good at managing meetings.

What exactly are our challenges?
First of all action items are written down (if they are written down at all) in too many different places: in your notepad, e-mail or in various applications. Consequently we often spend too much time finding back our commitments.
Secondly, without a proper overview of all our action items it is difficult to choose which commitment can be executed in the timeframe available at a certain moment. Consequently, we start with the first thing that comes to our mind. In addition, we are led by urgent input like phone calls, people coming by and the constant flow of email. Our effectivity is strongly reduced.
Thirdly, if we meet people, we are not able to bring forward the relevant action items to talk about. It ends up often in forgetting them.
Higgins PA is THE tool which helps us managers in managing effectively and follow up not only our own tasks and commitments but also of others. There is no other tool as effective and easy to use as Higgins PA.

Many books and applications are written about following up action items as well as having effective meetings. The effectiveness of us managers depends on the process, the way we act (using our knowledge and experience) and the tools to support this. We at Higgins know this from experience and used that to develop the Higgins PA app and a training to use Higgins PA effectively in your daily life.
