The great debate: Productivity vs Burnout – can we strike a balance?
The debate over work-life balance versus extreme work hours has reignited following controversial statements from business leaders advocating for 70-90 hour workweeks. While some argue that hard work is essential for success, many employees are concerned about mental health and family life. The focus should shift towards working smarter rather than longer hours, with an emphasis on adopting Agile principles at the organizational level and implementing personal productivity systems at the individual level. Sustainable success lies in making every hour count, rather than simply working harder.
