It stifles productivity \u2014 as employees can\u2019t organize their work in a way that suits them\u00a0\u2014 as well as wasting your valuable time.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Not having the right skills<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">It\u2019s not surprising that things take longer when people lack the skills or experience to get the job done.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">There can be several reasons for skills deficits in employees, from poor recruitment practice to evolving job requirements.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As a manager, it\u2019s your responsibility to assess the capability of your team and find development opportunities to plug any gaps.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">It\u2019s also essential to create a working environment that helps your team share when they\u2019re struggling so you can make sure you get them the proper support.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Working in silos<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Poor communication between departments and a lack of cross-functional\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/teamwork\/what-is-collaboration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">collaboration<\/span><\/a>\u00a0can seriously impact productivity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A study by the Economist found\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/d2slcw3kip6qmk.cloudfront.net\/marketing\/pages\/chart\/ebooks\/FINAL_EIU_Lucidchart_March2018.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">44%<\/span><\/a>\u00a0of respondents thought poor communication impacted project delivery, and 25% believed it contributed to missed performance goals.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Impact of poor communication\" src=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image3.png\" alt=\"List of key impacts of poor communication with a circle next to each item containing % of respondents\" width=\"391\" height=\"748\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(<a href=\"https:\/\/d2slcw3kip6qmk.cloudfront.net\/marketing\/pages\/chart\/ebooks\/FINAL_EIU_Lucidchart_March2018.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span class=\"s2\">Image Source<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Which isn\u2019t that surprising. Siloed work reduces the opportunity for collaboration and process optimization across departments and results in inconsistent working practices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Plus, it\u2019s harder to track and add to the information, which can result in unreliable data sharing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This means teams can often spend a large portion of their day collating and making sense of information rather than actually getting things done.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Procrastination<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">While businesses have a role to play in supporting productivity growth, so do individuals.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Procrastination is a productivity killer, and it\u2019s something many of us struggle with. According to a UK survey, office workers are only productive for\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.vouchercloud.com\/resources\/office-worker-productivity\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">3<\/span><\/a>\u00a0hours of each working day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Distractions like social media, as well as procrastination activities like gossiping with colleagues or making coffee, took up the rest of the day.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">And it\u2019s certainly not easier to manage when working remotely, where the list of distractions might also include our partners, kids, pets, and overflowing laundry baskets.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\" style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a class=\"cta-button blue-button\" aria-label=\"Get started\" href=\"https:\/\/auth.monday.com\/users\/sign_up_new\" target=\"_blank\">Get started<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p2\"><b>How can we overcome these obstacles?<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">Ok, so we\u2019re all aware that there\u2019s a range of things out there just waiting to stifle your productivity growth.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">So what can we do about them?<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Let\u2019s break down a few ways to battle the productivity blockers.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Enable flexible working<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">Employees supported by their employer to work flexibly were\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.metlife.com\/employee-benefit-trends\/2021-well-being-resilience-and-employee-benefits\/?cid=cf0ov&amp;utm_id=cf0ov&amp;utm_source=bing&amp;utm_medium=cpc&amp;utm_campaign=g_ebts_1q21_MetLife&amp;utm_content=all_taken+from+adwords&amp;utm_term=General&amp;promoid=cf0ov&amp;&amp;msclkid=34f0e6d882a114cf93d5865264219f40&amp;gclid=34f0e6d882a114cf93d5865264219f40&amp;gclsrc=3p.ds\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">86%<\/span><\/a>\u00a0more productive.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">And, with\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.weforum.org\/agenda\/2020\/08\/coronavirus-working-home-hours-research\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">98%<\/span><\/a>\u00a0of employees wanting the option to continue working remotely after 2020, businesses are working hard to consider ways to accommodate new working practices.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">If your team is predominantly remote, encourage them to develop, and stick to, a working routine that works for them as much as possible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">A consistent routine can help trick the brain into settling into work mode, which helps to tackle procrastination and build productivity.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For instance, monday.com makes planning work simple with clearly laid out boards that show who\u2019s working on what as well as what\u2019s next in the pipeline, due dates, and task status.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Planning work\" src=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image6.png\" alt=\"monday.com board showing information such as tasks, status, due dates\" width=\"1999\" height=\"1094\" \/><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Make your data work for you<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">It\u2019s critical to use a reporting system that helps you track the information that\u2019s important to you.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\"><b>Get clear on what metrics help you monitor productivity and use your data smartly to set goals that motivate your team to grow their productivity.<\/b><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\">monday.com makes all that simple with its powerful reporting capabilities.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Campaigns dashboard\" src=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image7.png\" alt=\"Colorful dashboard showing progress against a range of metrics\" width=\"711\" height=\"484\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Whether it\u2019s tracking\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/remote-work\/so-what-is-a-project-everything-you-should-know\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">project<\/span><\/a>\u00a0progress, sales numbers, or revenue targets, monday.com\u2019s colorful and fully customizable dashboards help you keep on top of the information you need.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Effective data reporting helps you spot bottlenecks in your process and opportunities for improvement. Optimizing how work gets done is a key driver of productivity growth.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Build collaboration<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">To really accelerate your productivity growth, look for opportunities for cross-functional collaboration.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This can actually benefit your productivity in 2 distinct ways. Firstly, it reduces the issues found with siloed working and increases the opportunity for process optimization.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Secondly, skills can be shared between teams and teammates, supporting the development of less experienced team members.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Plus, a problem shared is a problem halved. Outside influence can help teams look at issues in a new light and may drive innovative solutions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">monday.com is excellent at driving effective collaboration. With a shared digital platform, you have a single source of truth for all your data. Plus, you can easily share, view, and annotate documents, plus @tag colleagues for their input.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Cross-functional project collaboration\" src=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image5.png\" alt=\"monday.com board showing collaboration via chat box\" width=\"688\" height=\"475\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Communication can happen in-platform or through a range of integrations with tools your team is probably already using.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Plus, building robust collaboration mechanisms also supports your team to work more flexibly by keeping communication between remote and in-office workers effective.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p2\"><b>Encourage effective time management practices<\/b><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\">The procrastination struggle is real. Help your team to beat it by modeling a team matrix that prioritizes urgent and important work.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">The Eisenhower matrix is a model that plots tasks against a scale of urgency and importance. Named after President Dwight D. Eisenhower, it\u2019s a smart way to identify where to focus your energy.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" title=\"Eisenhower matrix\" src=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image2.png\" alt=\"4 colored squares arranged in a 2 by 2 matrix of importance vs urgent\" width=\"729\" height=\"682\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">(<a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@AmDee_Elyssa\/urgent-vs-important-how-to-get-the-best-roi-out-of-your-to-do-list-d4d516c56c21\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><span class=\"s2\">Image Source<\/span><\/a>)<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Urgent and important tasks top the pecking order, and some tasks may be eliminated entirely.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Once they\u2019ve seen the team version, employees can also build their own.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">This should help prioritize all the tasks they have to get done, so they know where to place their effort when they\u2019re winning the procrastination battle.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">And, for all those repetitive, mundane tasks that still need doing, why not consider automation? monday.com has hundreds of automation recipes that can allow your employees to focus on more value-adding work.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-70492 size-full\" title=\"Automation recipes in monday.com\" src=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image4.png\" alt=\"Multiple small graphics showing automation recipes in monday.com\" width=\"1600\" height=\"629\" srcset=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image4.png 1600w, https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image4-300x118.png 300w, https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image4-1024x403.png 1024w, https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image4-768x302.png 768w, https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/06\/image4-1536x604.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1600px) 100vw, 1600px\" \/><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For more\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/blog\/project-management\/busy-but-not-productive-reclaim-your-day-with-better-time-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">time management<\/span><\/a>\u00a0hacks, check out our\u00a0article.<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p2\"><b>Productivity growth is good for individuals and organizations<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\">In this article, we\u2019ve explored why productivity growth is vital for both businesses and their employees.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Effectively managing work helps increase employee engagement and decreases stress, all while adding to the bottom line.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Remote working has offered an additional challenge to productivity but adopting the working practices showcased above can help you meet it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Why not get started with monday.com\u2019s\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/monday.com\/templates\/template\/97443\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">work calendar template<\/span><\/a>\u00a0today?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><a class=\"cta-button blue-button\" aria-label=\"Get started\" href=\"https:\/\/auth.monday.com\/users\/sign_up_new\" target=\"_blank\">Get started<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Many employees are working longer hours\u00a0and feeling more stressed by their workloads than ever before.
