It all started with the big question on the table:

Are we caught up in "Productivity Shiny Object Syndrome?"

Do you ever feel like you’re juggling flaming chainsaws while blindfolded on a unicycle?

You’re not alone.

Between designing workshops, crafting engaging training materials and nurturing employee development, finding time to breathe, let alone be productive, feels like a pipe dream.

Today, let’s explore what really matters when choosing productivity tools. Together we can shift our mindset away from the “more tools, more productivity” myth and help identify the specific areas slowing us down in our unique workflow. Then, we can consider what tools and processes can make our work lives healthier and more efficient.
