Making Work Visible: Exposing Time Theft to Optimize Workflow by Dominica Degrandis

Today's workers are drowning: nonstop requests for time, days filled to the brim with meetings, and endless nights spent heroically fixing the latest problems. This churn and burn is creating a workforce constantly on the edge of burnout.

Through simple solutions that make work visible, DeGrandis helps people round up the five thieves of time and take back their lives with time-saving solutions.

Chock-full of exercises, takeaways, real-world examples, colourful diagrams, and an easy-going writing style, readers will quickly learn effective practices to create high-performing workflows within an organization.
