This workshop presents an opportunity to rethink and redefine productivity in a way that is both good for business and good for people.
Our new formula for defining and measuring productivity in our workplaces today is based on interviews with 30 senior leaders from startups to Fortune 500 about the most productive teams and the most productive individuals they've experienced over the course of their career.
The formula provides teams with a new framework and shared language to have productive discussions and make better decisions.
Participants will leave with new understanding, knowledge, and tips to:
Evaluate how the team is spending their time and energy
Identify and remove obstacles to team productivity
Prioritize how to spend resources in order to optimize sustained productivity
