A proven productivity method that is designed for YOU
Hey, leader of change, I'm so glad you’re here because it tells me you already know and likely feel that you have some great approaches to how you manage work and life and performance and you’re ready to take it to the next level.
I also understand what it’s like to be the ambitious leader guilty of trying to fit life into the cracks of your work. The late nights. Weekends that no longer recharge you quite enough for the week ahead.
I’ve been that leader.
I’ve been you.
And I can tell you right now, there is absolutely a better way.
It’s time to shift from the belief that you have to work longer, faster and harder to the knowledge that you now have a transformative toolkit to help you feel more productive, more energised and more focused on the big picture.
If your current approach to getting the work done, feeling fulfilled and performing well is a constant ‘just in time and you’re ready to create a more modern productivity approach for yourself - it’s time to make a shift.
In our eight-week program, Sustainable PACE, I will give you a framework and toolkit based on decades of leadership and multi-million dollar project management experience coupled with formal education in human behaviour including neuroscience and vertical development as a professionally accredited executive coach.
This program is for you if:
➝ You want to be productive, do great work and feel recharged more often. (Isnt that what the standard of high performance should be?)
➝ You’ve realised the daily routine you keep and the way you used to balance work and life isn't as effective anymore.
➝ You’re successful and know you are capable of more - frustration and never enough time are constant.
➝ You know that planning, organisation and delivering results are foundational disciplines for success. Without them working well, everything falls behind.
➝ You need to transition to your next level of leadership, to meet the higher demands of customers, your team and your life.
➝ You’re done with the conversation about needing to change and you’re ready for an intelligent approach that's personalised for what you need to feel successful.
➝ You want to expand your bandwidth and capacity
➝ You know creating strategic thinking space is missing because any outcomes over great results have become the status quo.
“I had this really rigid view of what productivity is, I thought it was just about getting the to-do lists done. Everything Elana said was so relevant to what I was experiencing at work, I thought, this is something I should learn more about. Sustainable PACE is unique because it also addresses the core beliefs that get in the way of high performance and productivity.”
GRACE — PACE Participant, February 2022
What I know is that success can't be set on autopilot by following someone else's simple steps.
If you want to build new levels of success, your actions and ways of being must be different.
This 8 week program is a simple yet powerful productivity framework and method developed to guide you step by step through how to design your own rhythm of success and high performance.
A rhythm fit for changing worlds and external demands that allows us to create success in a way that matters — a way that fits and works for you.
Each step you learn is part of a toolkit; your breadcrumbs to define, design and implement.
But the real difference is that you’re not replicating the steps that worked for somebody else’s success in life, work, rhythm or goals. You’re redefining productivity to create success and a rhythm that works for you. For your life. For your work.
“Pace has given me a HUGE AWARENESS about my stories and limiting beliefs, and also has helped me develop a rhythm and way of being that makes me HAPPY and I feel 1000% more POSITIVE now…I feel that my productivity has gone up by at least 40% and not only that but my creativity is up again, I now have space to think and that is so important for me and the work I do”.
CATA — PACE Participant, July 2021
Here’s how it works:
➝ Create Capacity
Each week offers a step-by-step recipe for building a new way of thinking and new actions to implement, so you become more productive on your own terms. I recognise that your to-do list is already overwhelming, so while it does take a commitment, by the end of it, you’ll have more time, energy and focus back in spades. Your bandwidth will expand.
➝ Restore Routines
Learning what, why and how to create daily approaches that help you perform, and recharge. You will feel a significant difference in how you are thinking and feeling and by the end of the 8-weeks, you’ll have designed your own best approach to a more productive, less reactive day, week, month and quarter. Who you are being on the inside will feel ordered and calmer and what you are doing on the outside will be noticed and deeply felt by you and your team
➝ Master Momentum
With a new pro-active approach to work and life, you will have a plan and tools that works regardless of the workload, your time out or the unplanned emergencies. One that works even more when you are designed into it, not out of it.

“This journey to uncovering how I perform best is so inspiring and I love foundher
for creating this permission slip to teach us ALL that designing our own way of being, is best practice".
RUTH - PACE Participant, March 2021
Order, clarity, focus and creating success from one day to the next can’t be rigid or fixed - it’s time to toss aside the conventional one-size-fits-all productivity tool kit and the outdated notion that most days (even weeks) look the same — they don't.
You’ll become part of a small intimate group, where you can access live group Q&A weekly coaching with Elana, so you can ask questions, unpack obstacles, and learn from others. We will meet you where you are at and give you steps and coaching for you to apply.
One of the key purposes of our leadership programs is to influence people’s awareness (being) and behaviour (doing) to become more effective leaders. Built using double-loop learning principles to help students acquire and integrate new information and develop new skills, to question and possibly discard familiar and perhaps outdated ways of thinking, feeling, and acting leaving high level potential to shift.
After the program, this is what letting go of the status quo looks like:
“Wow! It’s only been two weeks. This morning routine stuff works!
I felt really focused and calmer today after following the steps, woohoo!
I'm much more open to the idea of designing a life that I love, rather than just going with the flow, which is how I've operated for a long time.”
- EXECUTIVE COACH AND ORGANISATIONAL DESIGNER.
“I’ve realised that I deserve to live my best life, not my backup plan.”
- JOURNALIST & EDITORIAL BIZ OWNER.
“Now I have added not only 5 but maybe 15 hours back to my week including the almost 2 hours that I dedicate to myself every morning and have also progressed in developing my business quite a lot!”
- HEAD OF DESIGN & CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE.
“I have awareness of my reality of productivity and I’m noticing more where there are productivity leaks and opportunities.”
- TELCO PROGRAM MANAGER.
“Before PACE I really struggled under the weight of my own stories and opinions of my own productivity. I felt like I couldn’t keep up with everything I had on my plate and I was getting incredibly burned out. My productivity is at least 50% better than what it was before PACE. I feel so much more confident in who I am when I show up to work every day.”
- PHYSIOTHERAPIST & HEALTH PRACTITIONER
“Anyone serious about taking their life and business to a professional level needs this because unless you commit to organising your day, week, months and years, planning ahead and really understanding why you are doing what you are doing, NOTHING WILL CHANGE. Which means you don't really want it that bad! If you do, this is for you!”

Sustainable Pace is only taught live online by Elana Robertson. It is open for enrollment 3 times per year only. Enhancing performance is highly personalised. Every student will learn new approaches, take new action and change habits because that is the only scientific method that creates lasting change and transformation…Everything else is just a quick fix or someone else's version of success and isn’t sustainable.
Sustainable PACE is our proven method underpinned by our signature Ripple Effect Framework™, PACE pools together my years of experience in high performance arenas with my drive to create tangible and long-lasting results in the lives of ambitious leaders. And because I stand by the value that is in this experience, I am backing this up with a 7-day money-back guarantee. This means if you complete all activities, exercises, and worksheets, and you aren’t satisfied with the results, I will refund your investment. That is how much I believe in the value of this program. This is how much change it will create.
When you enrol in PACE you’ll also be given an invitation for Sustain.Ability — our ongoing mentorship designed to support your new productivity toolkit and become even more capable, connected and impactful. We’ll show you how to further adapt and grow your momentum with your new found toolkit from PACE through ongoing quarterly goal setting and industry leading guest masterclass that will motivate your growth and goals.
This is the biggest shift we need to make around the whole productivity topic…
➝ There is no such thing as one-size-fits-all approach to ‘being’ more productive.
➝ You can't control your day in every detail - you have to learn new practices to manage and succeed in new ways
➝ Life and its demands are so much more dynamic than the approaches we learned in the past
➝ We need the ability to meet each day's challenges with clear clarity of priority rather than holding our breath “hoping it will work out”
➝ Outsource your to-do list, not your presence and attention
➝ If your approach to managing a to do list stays the same, so will your results.
That’s why I created Sustainable Pace.
After 25 years I’ve combined my corporate finance and insurance background with an entrepreneurial drive to experience, learn and share habits for success. Ive seen complete change in what performance and leadership looks like. With executive experience and corporate discipline, coupled with over a decade of project management, strategy and innovation I started this business to focus on equipping ambitious leaders with the most powerful approaches to create their own success.I went to grad school for Executive Coaching and Leadership, focused on human behaviour and psychology models and let me tell you - we have so much more potential to tap into than the outdated ways of operating offer!
Before you go any further, I need you to know that I’m not here to tell you all about my personal daily approach to how I live, that “it was the only thing that took me from a burned-out corporate exec to an x-figure entrepreneur who takes 6 months off a year, so YOU can have your cake and eat it too, just like me” spiel.
So who am I to be inviting you to revolutionise your productivity and become the best version of you?
Every day I work with incredibly ambitious, capable, courageous leaders. They are small business leaders in the ethical fashion, hospitality, finance and design industries. They are corporate and medium enterprise tech executives and CEOs. And they are entrepreneurs who are all constantly navigating uncertain futures.
What do they all have in common? They are all committed to standing outside of the status quo.
Another common thread? Productivity is considered a foundational tool for success, and there is NO ONE WAY to be productive.
It’s time to re-write the definition of productivity - the future of work - is what we decide it can look like.
So are you ready to learn a method and rhythm that leads you to better productivity and higher performance?
A rhythm that's based on a proven toolkit that you will personally refine with our coaching so it’s effective and adaptable to your work and life?
-
Great question. And the answer is probably not what you’re expecting.
On paper, to get the most out of this program, you’ll need to schedule at least 2-3 hours per week over the 8 weeks of this program. This is including our weekly live workshops.
However, by embarking on the journey of PACE, what you’ll soon find is by implementing the actions and the learnings in the program, your takeaway will go beyond a renewed way of thinking and doing, but ultimately being. As a result, your performance will be heightened and you’ll find more hours back in your every day. We have participants saying they feel calmer and are finding time within 2 weeks of starting!

Sustainable PACE is led by Elana with dedicated support from our community lead, we offer limited places three times per year
We know that PACE creates transformational results. The next intake for PACE will be July & Septmeber 2022.
If you know your productivity needs to be different, do not “stick it out” or burn out, instead, choose to make change in 8 weeks.
-
What is personal, is also universal.
This means that when we all show up and ask questions, our knowledge is amplified. Because the answers to your questions will support the learning of others in our community, and so too will the answers to their questions support your learning.
Through our weekly live and intimate sessions, you’ll build consistency, accountability, support, and confidence side-by-side, with our community of like-minded change-makers.
-
Every day, you change the things around you. You adjust your systems. Upgrade your software.
You assess. Identify. And enhance.
But you are still operating (behaving and doing) exactly as you always have.
Are you equipped for the future or the past?
Your systems, processes, and teams are changing. Growing. Evolving. But you? For the most part, are still operating and applying the same ‘get stuff done’ techniques you stepped into when times were simpler.
This program puts you back in control. It gives you the opportunity to assess the problem before jumping straight into (any) solution-finding mode.
It’s about assessing priority, dependency, deadlines and demands that are actually needed, rather than sticking to a way of working that - well, isn't working. And I suspect you know you're not as productive as you were a year ago, 3 years ago?
-
Want to be inspired? Our clients who have adopted and continued to improve on building a sustainable pace have achieved 10 hours back every week.
They recognise their productivity and their teams are transformed from clarity and action.
They have time to focus on business strategies, therefore results are more consistent and faster.
*** Totally upfront biggest tip. You will get the results only if you make the changes and follow the coaching. Be available for the coaching and results are non-negotiable.
-
Not at all!
This program is completely online, so you can join us from wherever in the world you live. We want more leaders of change to last.
-
I love this part. Because this is where the real transformation begins. The actual meaning of the word Sustainable? Is the idea of being capable of continuation at a certain level. Anchored in transformational learning, the things you learn during this program are designed to become long-lasting and have an impact on the way you live and work.
This toolkit is given to you so you learn, practice and adopt new approaches long term. This is NOT a “it was good while it lasted’ program.
We also offer ongoing monthly Masterclasses and community support with accountability. Even more momentum. Once you’re confidently using your PACE toolkit, we’ll show you how to activate the next level too.
You’ll also have a community of business leaders for support, guidance, and to celebrate and recharge with.
-
You’ll have guaranteed access for twelve months following the completion of the program to the learning platform. To retain the resources longer than this we advise that you download the workbooks onto your own computer.
Access to the course also means it is for you only, the person who purchases. We have developed this program with years of experience, therefore all of the PACE material is foundher IP and cannot be shared or re-used including log-ins.
