THE PRODUCTIVITY PARADOX
Why "Busy" No Longer Equals "Productive"
As an HR leader, you’re at the epicentre of the modern workplace. You see the data and you feel the pressure. Your organisation is filled with talented, hard-working people, yet the needle on true productivity isn't moving. Engagement scores are flat, and "burnout" has gone from a buzzword to the daily reality for many.
This is the productivity paradox. We are more connected than ever, yet less focused. The cost is staggering.
Consider the data: 90% of UK workers report being NOT engaged at work, ranking the UK 33rd out of 38 European countries. This isn't just a morale issue; it's a direct hit to the bottom line. This disengagement costs the UK economy an estimated £9K+ per employee every year in lost productivity.
The culprit? A culture of constant interruption.
The average employee gets just 10.5 minutes on a task before they are interrupted.
It then takes a staggering 23 minutes to refocus.
The result is 2-4 hours of lost productivity, per person, every single day.
Your teams are trapped in a cycle of cognitive overload and hyperconnectivity , leading to declining productivity, poor wellbeing, and ultimately, a revolving door of talent.
As an HR professional, you know that traditional, one-off training days don't fix this. You need a sustainable, systemic solution. You need to equip your people with the fundamental skills to thrive in this new world of work.
90% of UK workers are NOT engaged.
This makes the UK the 33rd worst out of 38 countries in Europe.
This costs businesses £9k+ (18%)
in lost productivity, per person, per year! *

and 230 days of work each year (£217/day)
THE SOLUTION
This isn't another box-ticking exercise. It is a comprehensive 12-month performance training programme
designed to give every single employee the tools they need to be healthy, happy, and high-performing.
We deliver this by focusing on the three pillars of modern performance:
Communication, Productivity, and Resilience (CPR).
Studies show that organisations with strong learning cultures experienced 37% higher productivity.
This means with the right training program, you could unlock £18.5k per person, per year! *

1. Communication
Build Trust, Clarity, and Collaboration
The Problem: Poor communication is the silent killer of productivity. It creates silos, fuels workplace politics, erodes trust, and leads to costly rework. For HR, it's the root cause of countless employee relations issues.
The PRIME Solution: We foster a culture of psychological safety and radical candour. We arm your people with the skills to communicate with empathy, clarity, and influence. The impact is real:
71% of our programme participants reported better communication with their colleagues.
We train your teams in the ability to:
>> Build trust and psychological safety: This is the foundation of high-performing teams, encouraging innovation and honest feedback without fear.
>> Set clear goals and expectations: We eliminate the ambiguity that leads to missed deadlines and frustration, ensuring everyone is aligned and accountable.
>> Give and receive constructive feedback: We transform difficult conversations from moments of conflict into opportunities for growth.
>> Manage upwards effectively: We empower employees to build stronger, more productive relationships with their line managers, improving alignment and support.
2. Productivity
Master Your Work, Don't Let it Master You
The Problem: Most employees have never been formally trained in how to work. They are expected to manage an avalanche of emails, back-to-back meetings, and conflicting priorities with no framework, leading to wasted effort and frustration.
The PRIME Solution: We move your teams from "busy" to "effective." Our Productivity module is a toolkit for reclaiming focus and maximising output. After 90 days of this training, 100% of participants reported performance gains from our productivity tools.
We empower your staff with the ability to:
>> Run efficient and effective meetings: We teach them how to stop time-wasting meetings and implement clear agendas, actions, and accountability.
>> Prioritise work requests and demands: We provide science-backed frameworks for distinguishing between deep work and shallow work, ensuring that high-value tasks get the attention they deserve.
>> Plan their day, week, month, and year: We replace reactive fire-fighting with proactive, structured planning, giving employees a sense of control and clarity.
>> Maintain focus amongst the noise: We provide actionable techniques to manage digital distractions, create "flow states," and produce high-quality work, faster.
3. Resilience
Proactively Combat Burnout and Build Wellbeing
The Problem: Resilience is often misunderstood as "toughing it out." This leads directly to burnout, absenteeism, and a wellbeing crisis that HR is left to manage. Stress-related absences and "presenteeism" are costing your organisation a fortune.
The PRIME Solution: We treat resilience as a proactive, trainable skill for sustainable high performance. We provide a framework for managing energy, mindset, and stress, creating a workforce that can perform under pressure without breaking. The results are transformative, with an
82% increase in resilience and the ability to perform under pressure reported by participants.
We give your staff the tools to:
>> Identify their value and purpose: We connect their daily work to a bigger "why," a powerful, intrinsic motivator.
>> Create a positive mindset: We use proven techniques from positive psychology to rewire the brain for optimism and creativity.
>> Combat stress, anxiety, and burnout: We provide practical, in-the-moment tools to manage stress responses and prevent chronic anxiety.
>> Sustain good work/life balance: We help employees set healthy boundaries and optimise their energy, not just their time, to thrive both at work and at home.

The Challenge
The UK Regulator was facing challenges with people not having the required skills, confidence or resilience to take ownership of their productivity and workplace relationships. Amid rising demands, staff were struggling to stay focused and collaborate effectively across departments. The challenge was cultural: moving from reactive behaviours to a high-performance mindset and the practical tools, habits and shared language to sustain performance under pressure.
Why it mattered: Performance drops when teams lack structure and fail to collaborate effectively. Investing in team resilience and communication is proven to boost performance by 13% and reduce attrition by 25% (Source: McKinsey). The Regulator also needed more than a one-off, feel-good workshop - it required scalable systems that maintain focus, clarity, and productivity in the long-term.
Our Solution
Deliver a programme to embed and sustain essential communication,
productivity and resilience skills to all staff (not just managers):
>> In-person workshops to share key tools and drive engagement
>> Always-on digital access to techniques, methods and frameworks
>> Daily micro-habits and monthly team check-ins for reinforcement
>> Peer accountability groups to sustain consistency and motivation
>> Follow-up reviews to maintain long-term behavioral change
The Results
>> 100% of staff applied tools after the first session
>> 100% saw performance gains from productivity tools
>> 82% increase in resilience and ability to perform under pressure
>> 71% reported better communication with colleagues
>> 75% sustained tools and habits 90+ days post-training
