Abstract
With thousands of books on the topic, productivity is a popular subject in the business world. Increase work output, reduce the bottom line, and stay competitive—those are some of the magic bullets that productivity promises. But with so many thoughts, schools, methods and gurus in the world, where do we begin? How do we find a productivity strategy that is right for our professional and personal goals? How do we know which voices to listen to? The short answer? “It depends.” In this lightning talk, we will discuss important considerations when we decide to embark on our own productivity journey. We will focus on sharpening our goals, understanding what we value and creating a space for improving the way we work (and live).
