What happens to your productivity when the results don’t sit neatly in your own hands?

In this episode, I’m joined by my good friend (and brilliant human) Edd Parker, Product Innovation Manager at Christians Against Poverty. Edd has worked everywhere from Tanzania to the UK leading digital transformation projects, but his focus is always on people first, problems second.

Together we dive into:
🍋 Why productivity is about outcomes not outputs (and why your to-do list might be leading you astray).
🍋 How to stay effective when you’re working in a matrix team or relying on people you don’t directly manage.
🍋 The truth that “organisations move at the speed of trust” and what that means for your meetings, handovers, and relationships.
🍋 The power of creating a Not-To-Do List (yes, you read that right!) to protect your focus and stop spinning plates that aren’t yours.
🍋 And of course… what South Park’s underpants gnomes can teach us about productivity (because why not?).

This conversation is packed with practical insights and a good dose of fun, all about keeping your productivity flowing when you’re not the one holding all the strings.
