Optimal Work: A Project Manager's Guide to Elevating Team Performance Through Deep Work, Passion, and Purpose - Softcover
Synopsis
Today's high-stress, fast-paced, and hyper-connected world has created a burnout epidemic.
Workplace stress due to constant distractions, interruptions, and micro-management threatens the well-being of every employee and affects organizational success. "Optimal Work" offers a new approach to how project managers, through planning and actions, can take on this epidemic and transform how we think about productivity, engagement, and team dynamics.
Drawing on proven psychological research and decades of real-world experience, this book details a new approach to managing teams and projects, merging performance-enhancing concepts such as “flow” and “deep work” with proven project management practices. The result is a powerful strategy for unlocking unprecedented levels of productivity, creativity, and fulfillment within teams.
Inside these pages, you will learn how the costs of our “always on/always connected” world can affect individual performance and project success. You will also learn how to take action to elevate your team’s success including:
- Strategies for creating an environment where deep focus and engagement can flourish
- Techniques for aligning tasks with individual skills and passions, maximizing both satisfaction and output
- Methods for designing flexible schedules that boost productivity while respecting work-life balance
- Ways to evolve meetings and communication for maximum efficiency and minimal disruption
- Approaches to leveraging technology without sacrificing human connection
- Strategies for building trust, fostering innovation, and cultivating a culture of continuous improvement
More than just another project management book, "Optimal Work" challenges conventional wisdom, asking us to rethink our assumptions about productivity, leadership, and team dynamics.
Each chapter builds on the last, providing a comprehensive framework that's both theoretically sound and practically applicable. You'll find real-world case studies, actionable strategies, and end-of-chapter recaps that make it easy to implement these ideas immediately.
By the time you finish this book, you'll have a new perspective on what's possible in project management. You'll be equipped with strategies to not just manage projects, but to create environments where teams thrive, innovation flourishes, and results exceed expectations.
