smart, ambitious

don’t want and think
they can’t change.

difference between
being a responsible

100% responsibility.

Process over the last year 350
people in 9 countries have become
way more productive than we ever
imagined they could be.
Today we produce twice the
software with half the headcount.”Judith Mills
Vice President

13. “I no longer remain stuck
inside self-imposed boxes. I
found the courage to push
through my fears and make
significant changes to my
life, the least of which was
leaving a secure, well-
paying job in the corporate
world to purchase and lead
my own company.
I have never looked back
and feel freer and more in
control of my life and my
happiness.”

“Transformation starts from within.
Whether we want to improve our
own lives—take ownership to lead
ourselves—or seek to become a
more successful inspirational leader
of others, The Responsibility
Process sets the foundation
for lasting change and
ongoing growth.
Few tools are as profound,
elementary, and effective.”
