This particular phrase captured my attention:
> Productivity Is About (Much) More than Finishing Tasks Quickly
I read something similar in the book The Goal from Eliyahu Goldratt more than 20 year ago.
You can be highly productive and yet produce nothing of value.
- andrekandre 2mo agoyes! as an aside: two books that made it almost impossible for me to deal with management "goals" at large corporations anymore: 1. the goal - by goldratt 2. out of the crisis - by deming highly recommended!
- dinfinity 2mo ago> You can be highly productive and yet produce nothing of value. I'm sorry, but this is nonsense. Yes, you can produce nothing of 'traditional' value whilst still being productive in some way , but you 100% can not be 'highly productive' when you don't produce anything of value. Sitting around and jacking off all day is not as productive as working on some unmonetizable project. The value can be in many aspects of that project.
- ornornor 2mo agoIn a mind boggling number of companies, “productive” measures output, not value.

- BoggleFiend 2mo agoNo offense, but it sounds like you just skipped reading the blog and jumped right to the comment section. The blog post is literally about various measures that seem "productive" but don't seem to be creating any value.
