How To Be More Productive (Without Trying Too Hard)

  • Summary

  • Do you find most ‘productivity’ hacks too hard/too time-consuming to learn and too hard to remember? BIZ is here to save you. By the end of this episode you’re going to know the one prioritisation method that changed how we work and how to do it, and the single smartest way to push back when your manager keeps piling things on your plate.

    Host Em Vernem gets Biz career coaches Michelle Battersby and Soph Hirst to share their best tip each - with Michelle changing the way your work day is structured and Soph sharing a killer script for saying no to your manager in a way that means they’re not gonna hate you.
