Welcome to Relationship Workout for Men is a podcast devoted to helping men be intentional in choosing a better partner, and being a better partner for the person they choose. We’re here to discuss how men can reduce the drama in their intimate relationships, so we have more time, energy and desire to have more fun together.

The podcast is adapted from my book Relationship Workout: The Men's Manual.

Today’s CIO faces three very complex challenges:
- How to manage the broad portfolio of enterprise technology required to run the business?
- How to improve the efficiency and security while also lowering the cost of running management processes that operate across enterprise technology silos?
- How to find budget to fund disruptive technology initiatives like digital transformation?

Today’s CIO faces three very complex challenges:
- How to manage the broad portfolio of enterprise technology required to run the business?
- How to improve the efficiency and security while also lowering the cost of running management processes that operate across enterprise technology silos?
- How to find budget to fund disruptive technology initiatives like digital transformation?

Historically, increased complexity has given rise to new categories of software applications that simplify processes and drive efficiencies, helping the CIO’s peers to be more successful in their respective functions, such as CRM (lead-to-cash), HCM (hire-to-fire) and ERP (procure-to-pay).

In the book The Next CIO, I argue that the modern CIO needs a similar application to simplify the management of processes that touch the broad enterprise technology portfolio:
- ETM (Enterprise Technology Management) provides plan-to-EOL, enabling CIOs to define in software, automate and continuously optimize the end-to-end processes that derive value from the entire enterprise technology portfolio throughout the technology lifecycle.

ETM applications enable IT to buy functionally pre-packaged enterprise applications that automate common IT processes, versus having to run long and expensive IT projects. ETM applications also help to improve IT process efficiency, enhance security and compliance, and deliver business observability on the journey to powering autonomous IT. Show less

More Fun, Less Drama.
Relationship Workout provides a five-step plan to reduce drama, so you can have more fun in your intimate relationship.

Drama in an intimate relationship can be both toxic and destructive – and largely avoidable – reducing the desire to have fun together. Reduce the drama you infuse into your relationship by strengthening how you show up through the five-step Relationship Workout Plan.

The Relationship Workout Plan shows you how to be stronger in twelve core areas fundamental to any strong, intimate relationship: The mind, chemistry, dating intentions, emotional availability, alignment, kindness, integrity, ownership, anger, conflict, anxiety, and communications. The weaker you are in any of these core areas, the more the risk you’ll bring toxic drama into your relationship, which will reduce the quality of your experience together.

Relationship Workout also shows you how to assess how strong your intimate relationship is, including assigning your relationship a grade.

In addition to sharing insights on how to be a stronger partner, Relationship Workout also shows you to choose a stronger partner for yourself.

Relationship Workout is written for:
- Anyone that wants to waste less time dating the wrong people
- Anyone that wants to reduce the drama and improve the quality of their existing intimate relationship


The Men’s Manual edition of Relationship Workout describes the Relationship Workout Plan with plenty of R-rated locker room talk, written like one buddy talking to another. This can be considered humorous by many but may be found to be offensive by others. Show less
