Petchinsky M: Focus When the World
Fractures

Focus When the World Fractures

A central concern of economists, policymakers and civil society in recent years has been the persistent and widespread slowdown in global productivity growth.This stands in stark contrast to the robust productivity performance and associated prosperity witnessed across advanced economies in previous decades. The productivity slowdown represents a significant concern because it underpins the tensions emerging from income and wealth inequality, an expanded corporate profit share and geopolitical friction as established and emerging economic powers vie for global market supremacy. History offers numerous examples of technological advancement coinciding with heightened economic uncertainty and political discontent, yet these were also predominantly periods of accelerated productivity growth. This volume delivers a guide to the contested terrain through a diversity of perspectives spanning mainstream economic analysis to institutional and political economy frameworks. It encompasses topics ranging from the definition and measurement of productivity to the function of research and innovation, financialization and business dynamism, management quality and workplace relations and the existential implications and opportunities presented by climate change.Understanding Productivity targets policymakers, students across multiple disciplines and readers eager to examine the productivity "black box," to participate in an informed exploration of theory and evidence-based perspectives and to formulate their own conclusions about this critically important dimension of contemporary economic discourse and debate.

Understanding Productivity

THIS IS A PAPERBACK EDITION FOR THE EXPORT MARKET. From the bestselling author of Rejection Proof, a guide to achieving your goals—the easy way—for anyone who struggles with distractions, disorganization, and discipline. Most people think that because great achievements are difficult, they must also feel difficult. But great accomplishments are rarely achieved through mental toughness. Rather, the most successful people find ways to make hard actions repeatable and enjoyable. Drawing on stories from his own battles with ADHD and procrastination, as well as twelve epic stories from history and pop culture, bestselling author Jia Jiang outlines the four principles of Easy Discipline—Enjoyment, Artistry, Systems, and Yourself—so you can take hard actions on a consistent basis, and love your work in the process. Each principle offers a mindset of Easy Discipline, as well as powerful, practical tools to turn mindset into action. You’ll learn: -How to harness the power of the One Action Goal system—and why it’s the only system you’ll ever need -Why “Changing the Game” can turn dreaded tasks into energizing pursuits -How to curate your media consumption to educate and inspire you toward your goal, the way developers fine-tune AI machines -How to create an “Inspiration Index” that concretely ties your efforts (inputs) to measurable outputs -Why “Repetition with Variation” is the key to success A love letter to ambitious people everywhere who are disorganized, undisciplined, and distracted, Easy Discipline will give you the mindsets and tools to turn flaws into assets, obstacles into stepstones, and dreams into realities. Work can be fun. Focus can be automatic. And success can be easy.

Too young to retire, too vital to stand still, too experienced to start from scratch? Welcome to your Bonus Years. Increased longevity has gifted us fifteen-to-twenty extra active, healthy working years, shattering the traditional linear career script of learning, working, and retiring. In The Bonus Years, the world's leading expert on career transition, and London Business School Professor Herminia Ibarra, delivers the definitive, social-science-backed resource for navigating later-career transformation. Ibarra reveals that thriving in an extended work life requires abandoning the old linear, plan-and-implement strategies. Instead, successful reinvention comes through 'resourceful discovery' - a disciplined process of active experimentation, trying on new futures, and knowing when to adjust your course. Whether change has arrived uninvited through an industry shock, or a quiet internal restlessness is telling you it's time to let go, this book provides the actionable tools to build transition mastery and successfully map your path forward. Filled with rich and varied case studies of professionals who reinvented themselves across the globe, The Bonus Years is an empowering manifesto for anyone who refuses to stand still. It is proof that to bloom late is not to bloom less - it is to bloom with deeper roots, on your own terms.

A Barack Obama Summer Reading Pick 2025
From New York Times bestselling author and television and podcast host, a powerful, wide-angle reckoning with how the assault from attention capitalism on our minds and our hearts has reordered our politics and the very fabric of our society.
We all feel it - the distraction, the loss of focus, the addictive focus on the wrong things for too long. We bump into the zombies on their phones in the street, and sometimes they're us. We stare in pity at the four people at the table in the restaurant, all on their phones, and then we feel the buzz in our pocket. Something has changed utterly: for most of human history, the boundary between public and private has been clear, at least in theory. Now, as Chris Hayes writes, 'With the help of a few tech firms, we basically tore it down in about a decade.' Hayes argues that we are in the midst of an epoch-defining transition: attention has become a commodified resource extracted from us, and from which we are increasingly alienated.
Because there is a breaking point. Sirens are designed to compel us, and now they are going off in our bedrooms and kitchens at all hours of the day and night, doing the bidding of vast empires, the most valuable companies in history, built on harvesting human attention. The Sirens' Call is the big book we all need to wrest back control of our lives, our politics, and our future.

The Sirens’ Call

WINNER OF THE BUSINESS BOOK AWARD, WORK &amp; LIFE 2025 'A manifesto for working women' THE SUNDAY TIMES STYLE 'A new practical guide and empowering manifesto for those ready to break free from burnout and redefine what it means to thrive. This book will be your blueprint for leveraging your strengths, boosting your productivity and achieving lasting success on your own terms.' VANITY FAIR Busyness has become a status symbol, colloquially used to intimate success. The 'more is more' philosophy still prevails, running us into the dirt and out of natural energy. We jostle for our position balancing work, family life, fertility, misogyny and mental health, and we have been told that working late, over-caffeinating, being the first in and last out, sacrificing our personal lives, and eating on the go, are conducive to succeeding long-term. But instead, we are burnt-out and less motivated than ever. That's where SMARTER steps in. SMARTER reframes the idea of over-productivity equalling success, and will ultimately show that those who work smarter, are those who achieve more long-term success. Featuring 10 achievable steps, and the experience of successful entrepreneur, E.M Austen, SMARTER will show you how to reframe previous systems that your brain predicts, switch your mindset from one of scarcity to one of abundance, join the 8am club, conduct a busyness detox, define what success means to you, track your energy not your time, identify and set healthy boundaries, time block, habit pair and switch to mono tasking, and so much more. Inside you'll discover how to embrace your talents, harness your productivity, create a consistent work-life balance and empower you to reach your goals. This is not for the bare minimum Mondays or the take it easy Tuesdays. It's for those who strive for success; for ambitious women wanting to do it all, those who understand that you have to make a deposit to be able to make a withdrawal. For those who have skin in the game. For the overlooked, the under appreciated. The full timers and the 'not quite made it yetters'. Those looking for a smarter way to do it. With this essential guide you'll find it's not about unlearning what you've been taught, it's modifying what you already know, so that you can unlock your power and lead a life that's SMARTER.

10 lessons for a more productive and less-stressed life

Rate every task from 0 to 10 to reclaim your strategic focus The average professional is interrupted every eleven minutes and spends more than half the workday reacting rather than leading. In The 0-10 Rule: A Simple System for Laser Focus in a World of Overload, behavioral scientist Dr. Michelle Rozen, PhD, introduces a framework rooted in clinical psychology that converts subjective judgment into structured decision-making, helping leaders prioritize what truly moves the needle. The 0-10 Rule asks leaders to rate every task, decision, and commitment on a scale of 0 to 10 based on strategic impact. Items scoring 9 or 10 receive full attention and resources; everything below 7 gets delegated, deferred, or dropped. The framework scales from individual contributors to C-suite executives and entire organizations, delivering faster decisions, reduced burnout, and higher engagement. Readers will also discover: <ul> <li>A structured scoring method that replaces reactive urgency with deliberate, impact-driven prioritization across every level of leadership</li> <li>Techniques for protecting cognitive bandwidth so leaders can focus energy on high-value work that drives measurable results</li> <li>Strategies for delegating and deferring low-impact tasks without losing accountability or dropping critical organizational commitments</li> <li>A scalable framework designed to work for individual contributors, cross-functional teams, and enterprise-wide leadership development programs</li> <li>Research-backed insights drawn from behavioral science and tested with leaders at organizations including Pfizer, Coca-Cola, and Kaiser Permanente</li> </ul> Written for mid-to-senior level executives, project managers, entrepreneurs, and HR leaders, and anyone who is ready to ruthlessly prioritize under pressure without burning out or giving up, The 0-10 Rule provides the structured clarity needed to stop reacting to noise and start directing attention toward the work that delivers strategic outcomes.
