At stages in our lives we’ve looked at something and thought ‘that’s a huge task, am I up to it?’. Yet once we started, overcame the shock of the change and new habits required, and then got into a rhythm we were suddenly looking back from a successful completion stage feeling ‘wow, I’m so glad I did this!’. I remember many years ago climbing sections of the Great Wall of China, looking across at the final destination point thinking ‘that’s miles away, how long is this going to take, I should have trained more!’. Amazingly several hours later I was there feeling very satisfied, and fortunately they had a toboggan ride back down to the car park :) .
The Productivity Staircase represents a journey you can take to perform much closer to your full potential and surprise yourself when you reach higher levels. Getting started can be a challenge, along with effectively implementing the changes, and invariably you’ll have some ‘wobbles’ with the need to refocus.
The rewards of attaining productivity grand master status are immense. You will feel like a different person: in control, work and lifestyle harmonious and in balance, satisfied with your progress. Your business can then realise accelerated growth levels, wider profit margins, and scalable operations with quality standards and efficiency levels that are the envy of all. This is for you to achieve, not someone else.

Each step in the Productivity Staircase model combines to propel you on the course to greater productivity. Planning and organisation is the foundation, process design and improvement is a significant enabler, then add smart technology to exponentially increase the speed and quality of operations. Once beyond these 3 key steps you can work smarter with better deployment of resources, actively identify and remove any anchors, and focus on yourself and team members to excel in adopting and driving your operations. A thriving culture of positive energy and continuous innovation will keep the momentum going.
