Ep 208: From procrastination to proactivity
In this, the final episode in our mini-series on procrastination, Richard is joined by fellow psychologist Dr. Joe Gray for a conversation about workplace proactivity – and how it can be a useful antidote to our procrastination habit.
Joe explains the different ways we can be proactive, while also sharing the fundamentals that need to be in place to facilitate proactive behaviours.
Joe is the author of ‘Powering workplace productivity: How to create future-focused, change-oriented culture’ and simply illustrates the ingredients of proactivity and its benefits for employees and employers.
