Workplace Productivity
Introduction to Workplace Productivity
But in that flurry of activity, what is your team really getting done? Are you making progress on important goals, or just spending all day on busy work?
Workplace productivity isn't about trying to squeeze more tasks out of every spare moment. All that accomplishes is burning everyone out. Instead, true workplace productivity means everyone can bring their full creativity, insight, and unique mojo to the work that really counts.
Employees' personal habits are a big part of workplace productivity, of course, but they're only part of the equation. The other part is building a team culture that supports productivity.
Whether you're a manager or an individual contributor, you can play a part in building this kind of culture. This guide will give you some ideas on how to make it happen.

1. What is Workplace Productivity
Workplace productivity can be broadly defined as how much work is accomplished, over a certain time period. It is a measure of economic performance that compares the amount of goods and services produced (output) with the input used; such as labour and costs, to produce those goods and services.
Ideally businesses are seeking the highest possible output for the minimum amount of input to optimise productivity. To accomplish this end is far more difficult in real life situations and businesses cannot approach workplace productivity by only trying to squeeze more output from every spare moment. This approach will only accomplish pushing employees towards added stress and burnout.
