Put the measures into a list and use AVERAGEX.

AVERAGEX ( { [ADF], [CR], [London], [Manual], [Pcard], [SNOW] }, [Value] )

Note: Technically, using { ... } creates a single-column table with the default column name "Value".

    Thank you for your response AlexisOlson . Your measure did not seem to work but i figured it out below measure. thanks again.

    Average_Productivity =
    VAR MeasureList = {
        [TOTAL_ADF_PRODUCTIVITY],
        [TOTAL_CR_PRODUCTIVITY],
        [TOTAL_Manual_Entries_PRODUCTIVITY],
        [TOTAL_SNOW_PRODUCTIVITY],
        [TOTAL_LondonTax_PRODUCTIVITY],
        [TOTAL_Pcards_PRODUCTIVITY]
    }
    VAR NonBlankValues =
        SUMX (
            MeasureList,
            IF (
                NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Value] ) ),
                [Value],
                BLANK ()
            )
        )
    VAR NonBlankCount =
        COUNTROWS ( FILTER ( MeasureList, NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Value] ) ) ) )
    RETURN
        IF (
            NonBlankCount > 0,
            DIVIDE ( NonBlankValues, NonBlankCount ),
            BLANK ()
        )

      Hmm. I wonder why it's not working for you. Does this version work?

      Average_Productivity =
VAR MeasureList = {
    [TOTAL_ADF_PRODUCTIVITY],
    [TOTAL_CR_PRODUCTIVITY],
    [TOTAL_Manual_Entries_PRODUCTIVITY],
    [TOTAL_SNOW_PRODUCTIVITY],
    [TOTAL_LondonTax_PRODUCTIVITY],
    [TOTAL_Pcards_PRODUCTIVITY]
}
VAR NonBlankValues =
    FILTER ( MeasureList, NOT ( ISBLANK ( [Value] ) ) )
RETURN
    AVERAGEX ( NonBlankValues, [Value] )
