If not, you may be interested in the new book by Tony Schwartz, “The Way We’re Working Isn’t Working.” I am very intrigued by Tony’s concept of “Energy Management” and our 4 unmet needs. It’s a good read if you are interested in looking at productivity in a new way.
The way we’re working isn’t working. More than 75 percent of employees around the world feel disengaged at work every day. We’re in a new kind of energy crisis — and this one is personal.
THE WAY WE’RE WORKING ISN’T WORKING: The Four Forgotten Needs that Energize Great Performance makes a compelling case for a new kind of workplace, a better way of working and a more deeply satisfying way of life.
Employers and employees alike share an unspoken assumption that human beings are capable of operating in the same way computers do: continuously, at ever higher speeds, running multiple programs at the same time.
In fact, we’re designed to pulse. We’re more productive and more satisfied when we move rhythmically between spending and renewing energy to meet our four key needs:
physical (sustainability); emotional (security); mental (self-expression) and spiritual (significance).
