Synopsis

Most
organizations know their headcount, budgets, and strategy-but not their work.
They can't see how workload develops and moves, where capability breaks, how
culture interferes, or how much productive capacity their systems quietly
waste. And HR-expected to solve everything from burnout to performance to
workforce planning-is left to do the impossible without the one thing it needs
most: clear visibility into the work itself.

Measuring
Work and Productive Capacity

changes the discipline of people management. It reveals a complete,
evidence-based operating system for understanding workload, utilization, human
energy, capability, culture, and capacity-integrated into a practical framework
HR and enterprise leaders can use to diagnose problems, design solutions, and
strengthen organizational performance.

This book
gives HR and OD professionals a level of analytical power traditionally
reserved for operations, strategy, and finance. It exposes why organizations
burn out, why hiring can struggle, why culture programmes misfire, and why
"more headcount" may be the wrong answer.

Provocative,
practical, and grounded in real-work dynamics, this book introduces a new
science of organizational performance. If you want to build an organization
that can actually deliver, adapt, and thrive under real-world conditions, start
by measuring the work.
