No. That may be one way to increase productivity, but it's not the definition. Increasing productivity is finding ways that more work can be done by the same number of people (or with the same amount of other resources, e.g., money).

Thanks. I'm confused as "efficiency"
is listed as a synonym for "productivity". I'm actually looking for another way of saying "maxmise your time" as that is what I want to say.
