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] )
