A new week, a new productivity ‘hack’. But is chasing productivity actually helping us to get more done? Or simply giving us more to do?

Feeling productive can mean different things on different days. Sometimes it’s flying through our to-do list. Sometimes it’s spending hours thinking of an idea that will go on to change everything. But do we value one type of productivity more than the other? And could doing so be holding us back?

Solving the productivity puzzle seems like it could benefit everyone, so how do we do it? Does getting more done really come down to where and when we work? What role can AI and technology play in boosting productivity? How does company culture affect our output? And where can businesses and leaders invest their resources to help improve productivity in a way that works for all of us?

That’s what we’re exploring with guests Professor Michael Clinton, Professor of Work Psychology at King’s College London and Deloitte partner, Shivani Maitra, in this episode of The Green Room, as we ask: What’s the secret to doing our best work?

Tune in to find out:

What we need to understand about ourselves to be more productive
The difference between performance and productivity
How we can ‘craft’ our roles – while doing them
What leaders can do to help their teams get more done
