Integrated productivity: what it is and what it means

Integrated productivity is the explicit and deliberate choice of a point on the segmentation-integration continuum that optimizes both the production of professional results and presence in your personal life. It is neither the total merging nor the rigid separation of commitments: it is a time architecture decision based on type of work, life stage, team structure and capacity for attention recovery. The explicit and deliberate choice is what separates integrated productivity from unconscious integration — which produces permeable boundaries with no criteria and no rules for the team.
