Rethinking Productivity in the Age of AI
Productivity is not just about speed and output. In a world of burnout, constant pings, and emergent AI, the real advantage is learning how to do less better. Anne Green welcomes author, public speaker and creativity catalyst Natalie Nixon back to Building Brand Gravity to unpack her new book, Move. Think. Rest. along with the big question it asks: how can we understand “productivity” differently? Natalie traces how industrial era assumptions around productivity still shape modern work, then offers a more human operating system that integrates movement, reflection, and rest as inputs to higher quality thinking. They talk about why rest is not a reward but risk mitigation, how leaders can build cultures that make space for creativity, and why we are not in a tech revolution so much as a human one. The conversation gets practical on what needs to change inside organizations, from meeting norms and attention habits, to value based pricing and small prototypes that help systems evolve.
