Reevaluating Productivity in Modern Business

Productivity, a former measure rooted in physical labor, is now outdated in a modern work environment filled with knowledge workers using creativity and innovation. The shift from focusing on output to outcome is crucial to gauge real business success, emphasizing the impact on customers rather than mere tasks completed. Overemphasizing output can lead to burnout and mental health issues, hindering long-term success and innovation.

I used to use a different app that was able to save excerpts from podcast and really enjoyed it. I could listen to the podcast and quickly save things that I wanted to come back to later. Snipd take this to a whole new level with AI integration, creating summaries of podcasts and summarizing the main takeaways from what I’ve saved and snipped. I really love how it helps me prioritize what podcast to listen to with it summaries & deep dives.
