Knowledge work is broken.

On any given workday at any given company, most people spend more time on coordination overhead than they do on *actual work*.

Deep work Overhead

Why? Because the tools teams use to get work done come with a cost; they shred context into tiny bits.

mission

vision

projects

PM tools, issue trackers, team chat, etc

Putting a complete picture back together is a daily grind of:

  • meetings
  • tasks
  • message threads
  • chats
  • issues
  • more meetings
  • emails
  • Zoom calls
  • slide decks
  • notifications
  • scavenger hunts
  • research
  • reports
  • meetings about meetings
  • team syncs
  • cross-team syncs
  • shoulder taps
  • side convos
  • *even more* meetings

What’s worse, the process leaves people drained and demoralized, busy-but-behind. Bad for business, bad for people.
