 Episode three of Workplace dismantles common productivity myths and explores the tension between performance and wellbeing. Host Marc Ellery examines how modern workplaces confuse busyness with productivity, using flawed metrics that measure activity rather than value creation. The episode exposes multitasking as a damaging myth, explaining how task-switching reduces efficiency and increases errors. Marc discusses time management strategies, the importance of prioritization, and how technology creates both productivity tools and constant distractions. He emphasizes that sustainable productivity requires recovery time, challenging cultures that reward overwork and normalize burnout. Throughout, Marc argues that true productivity balances meaningful output with personal wellbeing, advocating for systemic workplace changes over individual optimization hacks.
