we understand no two companies are the same; we take the time to understand your unique challenges.

the productivity question

as a country, New Zealand needs to be more productive.

when we compare ourselves to our OECD peers, we work harder and longer, for less.

a recent study found the productivity of nz businesses falls well below the OECD average when measured in GDP per hour worked. if we compare ourselves to australia, we’d need to work an extra 2.5 hours a day to catch up. What about the best performers? we would need to work an additional 10.7 hours a day just to keep up with ireland!!

research from the now-disestablished new zealand productivity commission, found since 1996 New Zealand’s productivity has fallen from 34 per cent below the OECD benchmark to almost 40 per cent.

what could it mean for Kiwi businesses if we increase our productivity? what opportunities could it bring to our nation?

these are opportunities worth creating and exploring - which is where we come in.

we’re dedicated to improving productivity one business at a time - plus, we’re using a research-backed approach to uncover organisational barriers that cause businesses to struggle.
