Season 2: Episode 16 - The Future of Productivity with Amantha Imber

What does the future of productivity look like? And how does it influence the shape of organisations?

This week on The Learning Future podcast, we speak with Dr Amantaha Imber, founder of Inventium and in 2019 one of Australia’s 100 Women of Influence. Packed with insights and research, Amantha journeys with us as we explore designing organisations for deep work and greater job satisfaction. Using self-determination theory, OKRs, holacracy, the four-day working week and different chronotypes, we discuss how we might enable organisations for the future of productivity.
