The Zombie Productivity Apocalypse
How to Survive and Thrive in a Post-Dead World
Imagine a world full of zombies. Nobody knows where they came from, but slowly and surely, they start invading every home on the planet. Their poison infects bystanders quickly. The infected are crippled by pretending to be productive but actually not getting anything done.
Far fetched? Possibly. But the zombie productivity apocalypse I’m referring to is not a new concept. You'll find self-named productivity gurus at every corner of the internet telling you to try x, y or even z without proof that it works. So why is productivity dwindling, and how can we prevent infection?

What is zombie productivity?
While this term doesn’t exist in the dictionary, zombie firms have been around for a while. They are companies that are stuck in their old ways. Unfortunately, their traditional mindset limits workers' effectiveness and productivity during work hours.
