Optimum Productivity and Performance in the Modern Workplace

This session looks at how we can optimise our productivity and performance at work. We examine the modern challenges to effective productivity, and how the remote or hybrid work environment has only emphasised the need for professionals to take control of their own motivation, focus, and execution.

The session will show you how only an integrated approach can support sustainable performance over time, how to ‘get into the zone’ for peak performance in the moment, and the surprising truth about what really motivates us.

Learning objectives:

• To understand the evolving challenges to workplace productivity and the need to take control of our own productivity

• To understand the key components of sustainable performance and how they underpin one another

• To explore the peak performance state of ‘flow’ and how to access it
