Your typical day at work consists of wasting a lot of energy while getting things done (working in silos, inefficient training, miscommunication within and outside teams). Yet – every senior leader wants high results and wants them now. The quickest solution they can think of is “Let’s throw more people into it”. If not, “Let’s throw more hours into it”.
But this hustle culture at work is not really helping anyone. A study by Cornerstone says that work overload decreases productivity by 68% in employees.
We need a better solution to increase organizational performance without sacrificing our people.
Struggle and hard work aren’t the answer in the long run. Employees’ personal goals can and should align with the organization’s goals. This is the only way employees’ peak performance translates to the overall organization’s peak performance.
