I will discuss the collection of reasons that culminate in the loss of productivity and exacerbate feelings of stress. It is my hope that everyone leaves the discussion with new strategies for addressing their productivity challenges, including a process that helps us all to “get into the zone” and achieve the holy grail of work life balance.
