Unleash Your Team’s Genius

 

In the knowledge economy, your team’s brainpower—their intellect, creativity, learning capacity, and decision-making ability—is the key factor in their daily success at work. Their scattered focus dilutes their brainpower, hindering your organizations ability to succeed.

 

Today’s “all the time-on” work culture too frequently prevents your staff from producing what matters most: ideas, innovation, and meaningful results. Executives should protect knowledge workers (and themselves!) from the high cost of distraction, chronic stress and burn-out. Consistent productivity and sustainable success can’t co-exist with exhaustion and frustration from 24/7 communications, changing priorities, and constant distractions.

 

To beef up your company’s results, you want to be invested in how well they manage and execute their individual and collective genius. Helping your team harness their attention allows the full extent of their wisdom, experience, and education to be applied to your organization’s success. It also makes employees more productive, more engaged, and more satisfied—which returns results directly to your bottom line.

 

According to Maura Nevel Thomas in Work Without Walls, “in the knowledge economy, an important individual and corporate resources are neither time nor money, but body and mind.” Her research and 20+ years of experience in the productivity field confirm that relationships and productivity suffer when people are distracted, and that when employees master attention management, they are more successful, engaged, and productive.

 

Work Without Walls describes how to intentionally create a workplace culture that improves productivity and nurtures creativity by focusing on:

  • Attention management moderately than time management
  • Achieving significant results
  • Efficient communication strategies
  • Off-site work with healthy boundaries
  • Office design that supports both collaborative and focused work
  • Vacation and downtime
  • Work-life balance
  • Holistic well-being

 

Each chapter provides personal shifts and organizational changes through specific action items you’ll be able to implement now to reinforce the well-being and long-term success of you, your team, and your organization.

 

“If conventional wisdom now says that constant work is necessary for professional success, I will be able to’t think of a more important time to buck convention.” ~Maura Nevel Thomas
