Titel: Your People Aren't Working
Auteur: Jonathan Mckee
ISBN: 9781119390466
Conditie: Als nieuw

Cut through digital distraction to maximize performance Studies show the average person will experience 3 distractions before they reach the end of this page, and the majority of those distractions will be self-initiated.

The way we are working isn’t working. We’re distracted by technology. We’re overwhelmed by open offices, siloed by cubicles, or marooned on our “remote” island. We’re expected to be available 24/7, but never more in need of focus. We miss deadlines. We produce poor quality work. And they don’t understand why. How can we get employees’ attention off the myriad temptations and on what’s important for their work? Can I Have Your Attention? is written for anyone who knows that they, their employees, or their organizations can be more productive but aren’t sure how to get there. In the book, Curt Steinhorst and Jonathan McKee help leaders rethink every aspect of work with an eye toward our most precious and dwindling resource: attention. They dissect the nature of distraction in our constantly connected workplace, reveal the hidden costs, and outline the strategies and systems needed to address the problem head on. “Focus-wise” is the term used to describe the goal of turning our attention resources into productivity. Written for business leaders in any field, Can I Have Your Attention? discusses the possibilities and limitations of our brain’s ability to focus. The authors explore our love-hate relationship with tech and reveal how it can actually help promote focus. They also include a thoughtful examination of the pros and cons of monitoring your workforce, unpack the shortcomings of digital communication and examines how face-to-face connection can make all the difference for engaging people. They also offer an alternative to the myth of work/life balance, explore issues of delineation and delegation, and offer practical tips for extending focus and capacity. Can I Have Your Attention? is filled with research and experience based expertise and a practical approach to the unique demands of today’s workforce. The book includes ideas for training that really work, suggestions for establishing emotional engagement, and a surprising cure for employee boredom. Now you can reverse the distraction paradigm and make the workplace once again a place of productive work.
