What keeps me busy when the work day ends...
I released a 7-song #synthwave #synthpop album on #Bandcamp today talking about the dilemmas we face in the modern world. Have a listen if you're not doing anything crucial -- like saving lives, or taking a test. Cheers. acid42.bandcamp.com/album/th…

Every single time someone mentions "ICP" at a #marketing meeting, I have to remind myself they're not talking about Insane Clown Posse.

This puts into words why I have so much disdain for endless meetings: it's because my work (writing & editing) requires long uninterrupted stretches of time in order to string together words that (hopefully) don't read like typical #B2B hogwash.

The biggest roadblock to #productivity? A lack of context and clarity into what is being asked for and why.

Back in 2017, I wrote a post about what the new rules of #work would probably look like. Quite pleased to realize I got most of it right, despite not knowing how quickly the pandemic would accelerate some of the trends I noted. writerlionel.wordpress.com/2…
What it boils down to is this: personal care and concern for how your worker is doing.

"Employees are spending 27% more time this year on skilled work—but nearly 36% less time on strategy." ~ from @asana 's Anatomy of Work 2022 report. asana.com/resources/anatomy-… Certainly feels accurate. If you're putting out fires all day every day, strategy is the 1st thing to go.
