Productivity is an essential skill for all Managers /leaders to master. 

 

The benefit of being productive is that you can be more effective in your most crucial activities.

 

Not only are you effective, but you are also able to set meaningful goals and get more done in less time.

 

Productivity helps you to feel a sense of achievement and make progress.

 

It increases your focus and motivation.

 

Productive people can accomplish bigger and better results.

 

According to research statistics, a good productivity percentage is somewhere between 70-75%. 

 

This means that employees spend 70% or more of their time working and 25% or less of their time taking breaks. 

 

This allows for maximum profit without risking burnout or a poor work-life balance. 

 

What does a productivity expectation of 75% mean?

 

A productivity expectation of 75% means that the employee isn’t burning themselves out by always working at full capacity. 

 

This way, if demands increase temporarily, they can respond efficiently without going over their limit.

For example, an employee working at 75% will have vacations, small breaks, and unscheduled portions of the day. 

 

Doing so will give the employee more energy when it’s time to work and lead to a more healthy and more steady productivity rate overall.
