  • Summary

  • Are you an over-committing over-achiever? In Toxic Productivity, author Israa Nasir argues that you can only maintain that approach to productivity for so long. Eventually you’ll burn out, exhausted by all those ‘time management hacks’ that organizations (like Mind Tools!) keep suggesting. So this week on The Mind Tools L&D Podcast, Israa joins Ross Dickie and Ross Garner to offer an alternative approach. We discuss: how toxic productivity manifests in our lives how getting rewarded for our productivity tricks us into trying to achieve more how the signals that managers send sets expectations for their teams. The book, by Israa Nasir, is Toxic Productivity. In ‘What I Learned This Week’, Ross D recommended checking out the NotebookLM AI-podcast version of our newsletter. Israa recommended the ‘Under the K’ venue in New York. For more from us, including access to our back catalogue of podcasts, visit mindtools.com/business.
