The Problem with Work Today
Work Is Broken. Productivity Is Measured Wrong.
Across the Essential Economy, the connection between individual performance, productivity, and business results has broken down. Most organizations still measure labor productivity as output divided by hours or headcount—assuming that every hour and every worker contributes equally.
That assumption is false—and it’s costing businesses money.

The Hours-Based Productivity Trap
When You Assume an Hour Is an Hour, You Break the Math
Most organizations define productivity as output divided by hours or people. This assumes everyone produces the same results.
When performance falls short, the only option left is to cut hourly costs. This hides real differences in how people perform and forces a tradeoff between cost and execution.

Every Customer Eventually Has to Find Savings
The Math Always Shows Up
In real operations, success comes down to how much work gets done for what’s spent on labor.
When all hours are treated as equal, savings come only from lowering wages or rates. That approach doesn’t improve performance—it just shifts pressure onto workers and vendors.
Key insight:
The opportunity isn’t paying less per hour.
It’s getting more done for the labor spend you already have.

Performance Varies in Every Workforce
Not All Output Is Created Equal
In every workforce, some people consistently get more done than others.
In a functioning system, those differences would be visible and managed. But most organizations lack the tools to clearly measure individual performance, so they rely on averages and hope strong performance offsets weaker performance.
That assumption is expensive.
