How can you help solve the productivity problem?

This week the UK’s longstanding issue with productivity is back on our screens and in our papers. Lack of training for the bottom 20% of the workforce has been credited as a major part of the problem with those who don’t excel in the current academic system failing to have their creative potential realised. This is a contributing factor however to an issue which has been playing on the UK for years. Our employees work longer hours than many of our neighbouring countries, and yet we don’t achieve the same results. So what can be done to help productivity and how can you make an immediate change in your workplace?
