Description:


Leverage the power of urgency to avoid burnout and increase performance


Urgency”that frantic feeling that we need to be doing more, and faster”is a destructive force in today™s workplace. Unnecessary urgency can be toxic, causing stress and burnout. But not all urgency is bad, and sometimes we really do need to get things done quickly. Too little urgency can lead to inaction and lost productivity. So how do we find the right balance where we can use urgency as a meaningful tool to keep productivity up, without generating burnout? Urgent! is a guide to using urgency for good to help achieve your goals, to drive success, and minimise stress for yourself, your teams, and your business.


This book will teach you to moderate urgency for yourself and those you lead. In our age of fast-paced technology, it™s easy to swing between extremes, working reactively one minute, and being inactive the next.
