Strategies for maximizing productivity while capping the workweek at 40 hours
If the workflow is not consistent from week to week, be open to flexible schedules, such as going back and forth between 30-hour and 50-hour workweek. Find a rhythm instead of seeking a perfect balance. Mandating 40 hours will create stress when there is 50 hours of work and bad habits when there is just 30 hours of work.
Problem-Solve
If it’s consistently taking longer than 40 hours a week to do everything that needs to get done, you have a problem of a) overambitious goals, b) insufficient resources, or c) lack of prioritization.
Find Contractors
If your problem is insufficient resources, but it doesn’t make sense to make a new permanent hire, consider working with contractors to add an extra hand to your staff when needed.
Prioritize
When you label everything as important, you are really saying that nothing is important. Don’t fall into the trap of saying everything is top priority and must be done ASAP. Set realistic deadlines instead.
