This is an era few would have anticipated. Leaders have been trained for 10Ks but are being asked to run marathons at the 10K pace. The business model is not sustainable and it is frequently breaking. The parts are breaking. Then the system breaks when new technologies cannot be implemented into a depleted workforce.
The biological component of the human resource has been negated. First, we have to restore the leaders and workers cognitive band width so they can think, otherwise everyone will be replaced by a prompt. Secondly, we have to create organizations where thinkers and innovators can flourish. We can no longer anticipate leaders can carry all the load. The idea of Productive Efficiency is we do the right things faster and build in recovery so we can sustain.
This is a paradigm shift for many, but if you look at the environment, it has made a paradigm shift or you can say the world is not what it once was. If you have been caught off guard by the last 5 years, wait until you see the next 5 years.
