Productivity Improvements
Ideas for productivity improvements can be categorized according to the application of your time, improving knowledge, motivational factors, and your work environment. In this post I’ll go through how each of these elements can improve production.
Your first key element is the processes, tools, and chains of command within your work. These all affect how your time and skills are being used on a daily basis. Collaborate with colleagues to identify flaws and try to improve or buy new processes/tools. One example of this working most effectively is when the Google search marketing mantra to organize all of the data on the Internet acted as a vision statement for the company processes, internal tools, and collaborative processes which helped increase individual production improvement.
Your own knowledge and know-how play a key role in the quality as well as quantity of your outputs. Simply by getting some training in technical areas or equipment you use can help give you performance gains and increase your output. This is often best done through mentoring by team colleagues as their skills can often be applied on a day-to-day basis to your work. Do not omit training on softer skills such as time management which can help you to make better use of your time.
Productivity improvements can also be boosted through extra motivation for staff. Each individual is motivated by their own things (e.g. salary, bonuses, recognition, awards, etc.) so this needs to be evaluated on a one-to-one basis. Once you know what motivations you have it is easier to establish how the activities you perform on a daily basis can provide you with more rewarding work.
The environment within which you work also plays a part in how productive you can actually be. Environments which are dark or noisy reduce your focus, which can affect morale, and lead to output declines. Aim to have a friendly, clean, and bright environment in order to encourage improved productivity.
