We’re kicking off an 8-week deep dive into New Zealand’s productivity crisis to explore what it will take to transform our performance as a nation; something we will need to do if we’re to maintain our standard of living.

As an organisation, you’re important to the country, so we’d like to invite you to join the conversation.

As everyone knows, New Zealand has a productivity issue that will never be solved by politicians or economists. It can only be solved by businesses.

The uncomfortable truth is we have a ‘performance’ problem that’s getting worse relative to other nations. Employee engagement is in freefall. Managers are burning out. Technology is moving faster than our ability to adapt, and worst of all, organisations are continuing to apply outdated compliance-based processes to try and fix it.

That’s why we’re launching this campaign: to share insights and experiences from our 30 years of research on workplace performance to help leaders understand how to rewire their organisation in order to become a more productive, future-ready business.

Over the next 8 weeks, we’ll share resources we’ve found to be effective, as well as giving you the opportunity to leverage the conversation directly in your business.

New Zealand needs more than efforts to support the conversation; we need leaders to adopt new strategies to optimise the effectiveness of their business for the betterment of their stakeholders and, therefore, the nation.
