Gotta look at the definition of "productivity" people are using. Often it's just productivity = revenue / number of employees.

Defined that way, you can fire 20% of employees and make the remaining employees do more work for the same pay. That causes a 20% increase in productivity because suddenly each employee is doing more work.

Doesn't actually mean they want to make more things.
