The Power of Pause

We often fixate on productivity and feel that urgency and continual effort leads to the most output. But the truth is actually counterintuitive. Just like any great sport team needs a break to review and adjust, whether it's a timeout, a halftime, or after game review. In each case the team is able to catch its breath, review performance, and make adjustments.Our teams are no different. Being intentional about when we take breaks as an organization and what we do during those breaks can dramatically improve our productivity AND create and strengthen a performance friendly culture.In this podcast, we review some ideas about how to do "pauses" the right way.
