Aims

Productivity improvement is the biggest issue facing any manager at any level in any organisation in any sector – and the biggest peacetime issue facing any government minister too

Hence, one would expect there to be thousands of books, seminars, conferences, courses, websites and apps on the subject, and specialist managers too – surprisingly, there are very few

Productivity is ‘off the radar’ for most managers and ministers, whatever they might say – they’re ‘flying blind’ when running their teams, or nations – daily events top their priority lists, firefighting is the norm, productivity improvement is not even on the agenda of most

The result?

Most organisations in most sectors, public and private, operate well below their potential capacity – the majority could offer much more or better, many with fewer resources and at much less cost

The same applies to all nations, whatever their stage of economic development

Meanwhile, new ways to solve different management problems keep on appearing – some work well, some less so – and some are best described as ‘nonsense on stilts’ to quote Jeremy Grantham, the investment strategist

Sadly, most managers can’t choose between them – they need something or someone to distil the sense from all that is on offer

This website targets those managers, and government ministers, current and potential, who are keen to make big improvements but lack the ‘productivity knowhow’

It underlines the importance of productivity improvement and details how to take action to obtain big results

Its overarching aim?

To help all managers and government ministers to improve lives
