Scenario

When activist groups struggle with efficiency versus relationship building

Our activist collective started using this productivity platform to coordinate actions and it's definitely made us more efficient, but some of us feel like we're becoming too focused on metrics and losing sight of the relational work that builds lasting movements. We're accomplishing more tasks but I wonder if we're accomplishing less transformation, and I don't know how to bring this up without seeming like I'm against progress.

More people experience this than they realize.

What we've seen

A group discovers that optimizing for productivity might be undermining the deeper work they set out to do.
