Time Blocking or Task Batching? How to Pick the Right Productivity Method for Your Brain

Introduction Productivity advice is everywhere, but not all methods work equally well for every person. Two of the most talked-about time management techniques—time blocking and task batching—both promise better focus and efficiency, but which one is truly superior? The answer isn't always straightforward for business professionals who pride themselves on their ability to manage multiple tasks.
