  • CEO & Founder Of Time Hackers
  • Host of Hack Your Time podcast
  • Leading Voice in the Future of Work
Vikki Yaffe is the CEO and Founder of Time Hackers, a pioneering organisation dedicated to transforming how individuals and teams approach time management. As a leading voice in the future of work, Vikki has developed the Time Hacker Method, which empowers busy professionals to optimise their time and achieve more with less effort. Her insights are particularly relevant in today's fast-paced world, where burnout is increasingly common. After a decade of working 80-hour weeks in finance and tech, Vikki experienced the toll of hustle culture firsthand. This led her to a profound realisation: traditional time management strategies often exacerbate the problem rather than solve it. By discarding outdated practices, Vikki achieved remarkable results, including hitting her business goals in just six months while working significantly fewer hours. Her journey from burnout to balance has inspired countless others to rethink their relationship with time. Vikki's expertise has been recognised by Entrepreneur and Authority Magazine, which named her a "Female Disrupter shaking up the Life Coaching Industry." She has collaborated with over 100 multinational clients, helping them cultivate effective time cultures and enhance productivity without the stress of constant busyness. Her work addresses the root causes of procrastination and inefficiency, providing practical tools for individuals at all career stages. With a background that spans four continents, Vikki brings a unique perspective on the cultural nuances of time management. She is a sought-after speaker and podcast host, sharing her knowledge with a global audience. Vikki's mission is clear: to help others break free from the constraints of outdated time rules and embrace a more fulfilling, productive life. Through her innovative approach, she continues to inspire professionals to reclaim their time and achieve their goals without sacrificing their well-being.

Topics, sessions and talks

Why Time Management Doesn't Work & What to Do Instead
Vikki Yaffe reveals why traditional time management techniques fail high achievers, leading to burnout and frustration. She exposes the hidden time traps that keep professionals stuck in cycles of overwork and diminishing returns. By challenging outdated productivity myths, Vikki introduces a radically different approach to achieving more with less effort. Audiences will gain practical strategies to rethink time, break free from ineffective habits, and create sustainable success without sacrificing their well-being.
Your Most Powerful Productivity Tool: Your Brain
Productivity isn't about tools, apps, or endless to-do lists - it’s about how the brain operates under pressure. Vikki Yaffe explores the neuroscience behind focus, decision-making, and efficiency, revealing how cognitive patterns shape success. She shares powerful techniques to train the brain for peak performance, overcome procrastination, and eliminate wasted effort. Attendees will leave equipped with a deeper understanding of how to work with, rather than against, their natural cognitive processes to achieve greater impact in less time.
How to Make Effective Decisions
Every decision shapes results, yet most people waste hours overthinking, second-guessing, and hesitating. Vikki Yaffe unpacks the psychology of decision-making, showing how cognitive biases, fear of failure, and perfectionism delay success. She introduces a framework for making high-quality decisions quickly and confidently. With engaging insights and real-world examples, Vikki helps audiences shift from hesitation to action, unlocking faster progress and greater ease in their professional and personal lives.
Time & Women, Working Parents & Neurodiversity
Traditional productivity advice ignores the diverse challenges faced by women, parents, and neurodivergent professionals. Vikki Yaffe tackles the systemic and personal barriers that impact time management for these groups, offering strategies that prioritise effectiveness over outdated efficiency models. She highlights how shifting workplace culture, expectations, and personal habits can create a more inclusive and sustainable approach to success. Attendees will walk away with a fresh perspective on productivity that aligns with their reality, rather than forcing them to fit outdated models.
Failure, How to Fail, Our Relationship to Failure
Failure isn’t the enemy - it’s the foundation of success. Vikki Yaffe challenges the stigma around failure and explores how our mindset towards setbacks can shape our personal and professional growth. She reveals why the fear of failure leads to procrastination, perfectionism, and missed opportunities, and shares practical strategies to reframe failure as a powerful learning tool. Attendees will gain the confidence to embrace uncertainty, take more risks, and turn failures into stepping stones for future success.
