Productivity theater occurs when employees prioritize performative work over more valuable tasks.

Performative work = appearing busy instead of doing real work.

Singaporean desk workers feel that 36% of their time is spent on ‘performative’ work (Slack State of Work Report 2023).

Overcoming "productivity theater" Change the culture at the workplace. Employ a new measurement of staff performance.
