ACTIVITY IS NOT PRODUCTIVITY: Raising Execution Through Reclaiming WhiteSpace (Our signature keynote for general audiences, adaptable for leadership)
PERFORMING TO THE LEVEL OF CULTURE How to liberate talented teams from busywork and complexity (A program designed for senior leaders)
For executive leadership, who will find fresh ways of thinking about execution, legacy and culture. For middle management squeezed between opposing floods of demand. And for the front line, who will be given immediately applicable tools to unburden themselves from the low-value avalanche that hits them every day.
The smarter and more Type A are the attendees, the more they will identify with and benefit from the WhiteSpace body of content and set of tools. And the tone of the session will be fast paced, humor laced and almost slide-free. All WhiteSpace keynotes and workshops are presented by our vibrant and insightful CEO Juliet Funt.

Every executive and team has only
a select handful of true priorities.
And they’ll do anything to move them
forward quickly and triumphantly.
But when talented workers are lost
in unnecessary emails, meetings,
reporting and other low-value tasks,
they crawl toward these pivotal
objectives. Distraction, interruption
and unnecessary complexity further
addle their creative spark. And they
have no time to think.
Imagine instead a workplace where
a majority of time is spent on tasks
of true importance. Where thoughtful
time is a priority and where norms
and habits protect employees from
touching work that drains them.
This is a WhiteSpace culture, one
where strategic pauses allow time
for strategy and insight — and its
creation may be more possible than
Employees drive themselves hard
in the Age of Overload. We’re
fooled into thinking they’re more
productive than ever. But is that
true? Overloaded populations often
habituate to their discomfort. But their
companies tend to suffer from one or
more deficits that affect the bottom
line: the QQS Deficits- downfalls in
Quantity, Quality or Sustainability.
Sometimes it’s a quantity problem
with constant complaints about
headcount and bandwidth.
Sometimes it’s a quality issue;
work level is slipping, and time to
think high-altitude thoughts has
evaporated. Or it’s a sustainability
issue; employees are surviving but
collectively asking, “How long can
we keep this up?” Most companies
endure a mixture of two or even
all three.
you think.
In this high-energy session,
we’ll learn the basics of bringing
positive changes such as these
to you and your organization by
examining the critical difference
between activity and true
productivity, between cramming
in more tasks and selectively
choosing to dive into the right
ones with thoughtfulness.
We also meet and arm
ourselves against The Thieves
of Productivity, a group of
positive assets that can often
run amuck. By examining
the surprising downside of
these attributes, we create
a customized road map
toward more WhiteSpace
at the individual, team and
organizational level.
Seventy-seven percent of surveyed
CEOs noted that their organizational
complexity is higher than three
years ago. In this program, we
consider a different path, one where
a reductive lens helps pare back
busyness and make room to reclaim
and effectively use mental capacity.
Also featured is actionable content
that combats The Tools that Turn on
You. These are support systems and
devices that promise to improve our
work style. In reality, they tend to
defy boundaries, hijacking time and
resources — think email, meetings,
decks and more.
Lastly, we will discuss the relevance
of WhiteSpace to leadership legacy,
the story about us that is yet to be
written.
