Google's Executive Productivity Advisor offers insights on how to make the "new way of work" work for you, providing a time management framework with actionable steps to optimize your productivity, accomplish more, prevent burnout, and cultivate a harmonious work-life balance.

Every day, tens of thousands of Google employees, from executives to interns, rely on Laura Mae Martin's tips and best practices for how to make the most of their time. Now, with Uptime, Laura brings her unique approach to productivity and well-being to anyone who wants to be more effective and experience "calm accomplishment," whether at work, at school, or in their own personal lives.

Laura began her Google career in sales but quickly carved out a niche for herself as a productivity expert. For more than a decade, she's been coaching Google executives and employees on how to achieve a state of "productivity Zen" -- a holistic approach to conquering everything from the avalanche of emails in their inboxes with proven email management techniques to becoming the master of their own calendars and running excellent meetings. Her strategies have been widely adopted by many, including entry-level employees looking to amplify their individual impact, middle managers, and top executives working across global teams.

As many of us have moved to a hybrid environment blending work and home, managing our time efficiently and remaining productive is more important than ever. In Uptime, Laura shows how to thrive no matter where you're working, giving concrete steps that help you improve your focus, set priorities, and keep good systems, routines, and tactics in place.
