Productivity and Time Compression

Productivity focuses on achieving more output in less time by compressing tasks rather than reducing workload. While productivity can streamline operations, it may lead to increased variability and the tendency to fill available time with more tasks, causing overwhelm. However, excessive productivity without strategic focus may not necessarily lead to significant long-term business growth.
