by Matt Perman

The Zondervan Biblical and Theological Lectures series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, What’s Best Audio Lectures includes high quality live-recordings of college-level lectures that cover the important points from each subject as well as relevant material from other sources.

By anchoring your understanding of productivity in God's plan, the What's Best Audio Lectures give you a practical approach for increasing your effectiveness in everything you do.

There are a lot of myths about productivity--what it means to get things done and how to accomplish work that really matters. In our current era of innovation and information overload, it may feel harder than ever to understand the meaning of work or to have a sense of vocation or calling.

So how do you get more of the right things done without confusing mere activity for actual productivity?

Matt Perman has spent his career helping people learn how to do work in a gospel-centered and effective way. The What's Best Audio Lectures walk you through his approach to unlocking productivity and fulfillment in work by showing how faith relates to work, even in our everyday grind.

How to create a mission statement for your life that's actually practicable.How to delegate to people in a way that really empowers them.How to overcome time killers like procrastination, interruptions, and multitasking by turning them around and making them work for you.How to process workflow efficiently and get your email inbox to zero every day.How to have peace of mind without needing to have everything under control.How generosity is actually the key to unlocking productivity.Productivity isn't just about getting more things done.
