In this Productivity like a Pro Podcast Episode by the Paperless Movement®, Tom Solid and Paco Cantero dive deep into the essentials of productivity systems for busy professionals. They discuss why an end-to-end system is crucial, how the ICOR® framework simplifies complex workflows, and why relying on a single tool for everything is a common mistake.
The Importance of an End-to-End Productivity System
Many busy professionals struggle with fragmented workflows, using multiple tools without a clear structure. Tom and Paco emphasize that a productivity system should cover everything—from Personal Knowledge Management to Task Management and Business Knowledge Management. The ICOR® framework provides a structured approach to ensure information flows seamlessly into action.
Why a Single Tool Isn’t Enough
One of the key takeaways from this episode is that no single tool can handle all aspects of productivity. Whether it’s Notion, ClickUp, or Heptabase, each tool serves a distinct purpose. The real challenge is not tool selection but knowing how to use them efficiently within a structured system.
The Role of ICOR® in Business Productivity
While most productivity advice focuses on personal use, Tom and Paco highlight the need for a Business Productivity System. Managing projects, tasks, and knowledge within a team requires a different approach than personal workflows. They explain how ICOR® bridges the gap between personal and business productivity, ensuring teams can collaborate effectively without losing information or wasting time searching for critical details.
