Hi, I’m Dr. Kate Litterer.
I’m an academically trained Productivity Coach and independent scholar and I specialize in sustainable and well-being-oriented productivity.
My approach is informed by my research on productivity, time management, habit formation, mindfulness, and slow living. In other words: Slow Productivity.
As a writer, I’ve published multiple articles, over 100 blog posts, and a guided workbook on personal productivity.
As a coach and workshop leader, I work with individuals and organizations to increase client productivity while limiting overwhelm and overwork.
I created and run the popular Intentionally Productive Scholars Program (IPSP), an 8-week virtual program for undergraduate students that teaches sustainable productivity skills through lessons, workbooks, co-working, and group coaching. You can read more about IPSP here.
If you want to boost your personal productivity with intention, check out my free resources, including videos, guidebooks, and worksheets.
