Recommendation

Fortune 500 consultant Juliet Funt offers a fresh perspective on productivity. Funt makes the case that superior results – and better mental health – come from taking time to reflect and recuperate. She draws on psychology research and cites the experiences of professionals and teams in a variety of industries. Funt also offers sensible, actionable tools for incorporating “white space” in your day. Anyone who suffers from overwhelm – and is open to the notion that being busy and being productive aren’t necessarily the same thing – can benefit from her insights.

Take-Aways

  • A strategic pause means taking a moment – or longer – to think, plan, create or just breathe.
  • People need to take strategic pauses because overload has become prevalent.
  • Pauses can benefit performance by allowing for cognitive recovery.
