Frequently asked questions about productivity management & measurement

What is productivity management?

Productivity management is a framework that helps organizations improve productivity for individual employees and teams. It includes planning, measuring, and implementing changes to increase output or quality by helping employees work more effectively.

By understanding factors that promote and detract from productivity, managers can create strategies to maximize performance such as goal setting, offering incentives, investing in development, and adjusting communication practices. To be effective long-term, productivity management should be an ongoing process that involves tweaks as changes occur.

Productivity management tools often include employee performance tracker capabilities that help teams understand work patterns and performance outcomes.

What are productivity management tools?

Productivity management tools collect and organize data about employee productivity to help inform business decisions and improve performance. These tools come in the form of productivity management software and go beyond indicating whether an employee is working or not.

Using employee activity data, productivity management tools provide insights into productivity factors like time management, technology usage, focus time, context-switching and more.

Understanding these factors can help business leaders see how time is spent, how employees interact, and how technology is used. The tools can also reveal productivity benchmarks, trends, summaries, and comparisons between employees. Using data-driven insights from productivity management tools, business leaders can identify ways to improve productivity.

What are the benefits of productivity management tools?

Productivity management tools help businesses understand how employees work and the factors that positively or negatively impact productivity. By understanding things that influence productivity, businesses can improve performance and focus by encouraging good habits and mitigating barriers to productivity. Productivity measurement tools can be equally beneficial to employees, as the software may identify ineffective processes that can be revised to help them work smarter, not harder. As a result, productivity measurement tools equip employees to achieve personal goals without overworking or burning out.
