Combating a Culture of Busyness

May 31, 2023

In this episode of the Winning through Culture podcast, we explore the principles that form the foundation of a thriving work culture. We place an emphasis on impactful productivity over a culture of busyness. We discuss the intriguing concept of 10X productivity, contrasting it with the traditional 2X productivity mindset. The episode also introduces the innovative ‘Working Genius’ tool designed to elevate productivity and boost engagement in the workplace. Highlighting the value of team mapping, diversity of thought, and mental health awareness, we present an in-depth look at how intentional leadership can dramatically reshape an organization. Stay tuned for future episodes featuring guest speakers who will shed further light on these principles.
