Reclaim your focus to improve wellbeing and productivity
Customizable keynote available in-person and virtually
Redesigning knowledge work to facilitate focus could be worth US$468 billion each year.
45% of employees feel like they are working faster than ever, but 64% still report that they don’t have enough time to get all their work done. Why? Because the constant inflow of messages and notifications has outpaced our ability to process it, and the average attention span has dropped to just 47 seconds. Employees are losing their focus and hundreds of hours each year to inefficient communication, continuous distractions, and unnecessary meetings, all of which also increase their stress.
If we want to achieve peak performance without burning out, we need to rethink our approach to knowledge work.
THIS KEYNOTE IS PERFECT FOR LEADERS AND TEAMS:
- Struggling to maintain focus and productivity amid the constant bombardment of information and distractions.

Peak Performance in the Age of Distraction equips audiences to transform their work patterns and upgrade their mental operating system, enabling them to increase the quality of their focused effort where it matters most, reduce inefficiencies, and recover proactively from the demands of ‘always-on’ work.
