Why Work Sucks and How to Fix It: The Results-Only Revolution Cali Ressler & Jody Thompson

Review”If you work, you need this book! Cali and Jody share the secrets of the most radical workplace experiment the Fortune 500 have ever seen. Want 35% greater productivity while going to the movies on a Wednesday afternoon or taking Fridays off? Make the switch from hours to outcomes.” -Timothy Ferriss, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Workweek ”ROWE is a chance for everyone to learn a better way to work. It encourages people to contribute rather than just show up and grind out their days.” -Brad Anderson, CEO, Best Buy (from the Foreword) ”Now, this changes everything. Buy this book. Act on what you read.” -Cindy Froggatt, author of Work Naked ”This is like TiVo for your work.” -BusinessWeek ”It is a fundamental shift away from ‘face time’ or ‘chair time’ to just one consideration: Did the employee get the job done?” -Minneapolis Star-Tribune ”The freedom, employees say, is changing their lives. They don’t know if they work fewer hours-they’ve stopped counting-but they are more productive.” -Time ”A remarkably persuasive and mind-bending book. Family-friendly, too.”
