As a business journalist, I talk with and interview many people every day. But rarely do I encounter someone who's insight has more relevance in today's business world than Peggy Duncan. She takes a no nonsense approach to efficiency and training, and has proven to be a valuable resource for my stories.

Peggy has addressed such topics as time management, organization and entrepreneurship for stories that aired on our television show the Atlanta Business Chronicle Report over the years. She's not only shared her time-saving tips and strategies with our viewers, but
I'm also a much more efficient reporter and employee because
of her expertise.

Journalists call her often, and her expertise has been cited in various publications, including: O-The Oprah Magazine, Essence, Real Simple, Health, Fitness, Black Enterprise, US News & World Report, CNNMoney.com, Self, , MyBusiness, the International Herald Tribune-London, PINK, Men's Health, Positive Thinking, Good Housekeeping, The New York Times, The Wall Street Journal, Miami Herald, and more (links below).

Peggy has appeared on the TODAY show and Black Enterprise Business Report. She recently recorded a special for the US Virgin Islands PBS affiliate.

She's the editor of a productivity and technology blog (SUITE Minute) and Webzine (COPE), a regular contributor to Black Enterprise magazine, and a guest author on stress.about.com.

insights for my article on time-saving strategies, and
I am sure the readers will gain a lot from the piece.

Peggy, I used to ignore your sessions at conferences
because I thought you would be the typical speaker on 
time management. Then I heard back from all of your
session participants, and I kept seeing rave reviews
from  the media executives who attended your sessions.
You are awesome!

Diversity Services and Development Director

...thank you for the wonderful training. I was so excited
when I got home my hubby said I was a
chatty Cathy all night long!

Nothing would be nearly eloquent enough to
describe how much I've learned from you.

This class was so helpful in teaching how to work toward
efficiently utilizing my time. Peggy was energetic,
informational, and entertaining.

After attending Peggy Duncan's seminar at the Parenting Publications of America convention, I went back to my office and spent a few Saturdays setting up a new, organized filing system for the mound of paperwork on my desk. As an editor and manager, I'm inundated with paperwork, clippings, story ideas, resumes and invoices. Using Peggy's system to restructure my filing cabinet and habits has finally given me a clean desk.
