    Effective Leadership Productivity Strategies | WLS 132 – Road to Leadership Success Series
    May 7 2024
    Welcome to the Road to Leadership Success, a resource for people who want effective leadership productivity strategies to learn faster and accomplish more. I'm Sabrina Braham, your Leadership coach. As your coach, I'm constantly looking for shortcuts to help you succeed in your life and career. If you take 10 minutes to listen to these simple and easy mind hacks, I will share, it could double your productivity. In this episode, I am going to give you two leadership essential tips: How to overcome procrastination, distractions, and interruptions. A scientifically proven method to increase your productivity and innovation. How often do you find yourself procrastinating on tasks or projects? How do interruptions impact your productivity daily? Are you feeling swamped by your tasks? Do you need help to keep up despite your efforts? Well, you're not alone. According to new research conducted in the US by Zippia, the average employee is productive for 2 hours and 53 minutes daily. That’s only 31% of the average 8-hour workday. Most employees feel unproductive because they spend the majority of their workday distracted. Atlassian has discovered that the average employee is interrupted from work around 56 times a day and spends 2 hours recovering from these distractions. How long do you think it takes to recover from a single distraction? According to the research, Refocusing after a distraction takes an average of 23 minutes and 15 seconds. Do you have something you want to do or know you need to do but can’t figure out how to fit it into your schedule or avoid being distracted? Or Your challenge is that you are procrastinating. How much more could you get done if you weren't procrastinating, weren't interrupted, and could you stay focused? A lot, right? Are you ready to move your productivity AND career to the next level? I've got a proven strategy for you that will enable you to seize opportunities without procrastination, interruptions, or lack of focus. The good news is that I will give you my “Improved Pomodoro Technique” today. This is a proven method for increasing focus, productivity, and creativity. Top Tech Leader Struggles With Productivity & Being Overwhelmed But first, let me tell you a story about Ava, a director in a large company who came to me for executive coaching. She was working long hours and was overwhelmed by all her projects. She was very talented, and one of her coaching goals was to increase exposure to senior management to build a brand and enhance her career. Her senior VP had been brainstorming with her to develop a new product. The meetings were exciting and productive. Then, they took an unexpected turn. In the last month, Brad, the director of another department, had begun collaborating with the senior VP on the same project. Now, he was talking to Brad and not to her. Her question to me was: “How can I get the senior VP to speak and brainstorm with me again? She wanted to know how. Could you continue to provide input on the project and be instrumental in preventing errors? When I asked her why he should talk to her instead of the other director, she said, “Oh no, he needs to speak to both of us. The other director knows some important information, but I understand the algorithms, and unless they consider them, there will be errors in this project.” I asked what kept her from giving the Senior VP this information. She paused and said, "I'm swamped with less critical projects, which unfortunately prevents me from conducting the necessary research to stay updated on the information required by the Senior VPs for this new product." She looked surprised by her answer. She was startled to discover that she had missed an opportunity because she had filled her schedule with less urgent projects, lacked the time required for necessary research, and had, therefore, missed an opportunity.
