Never Not Working
The always-on, hustle culture creates an unhealthy, counterproductive relationship with work. Many workers believe that to compete with other top talent, they must embrace a culture that rewards long hours and a constant connection to work. Businesses and society endorse busyness, overwork, and extreme commitment as the most valued traits in workers. Sometimes that endorsement is explicit, as when Elon Musk told X/Twitter employees to work "long hours at high intensity" or get fired. More often it's an implicit contract, a buildup of organizational and cultural norms and the adoption of new technologies that make it easy to tether people to work. Either way, this workaholic behavior is unhea...

Over Work
'Fantastic' - Cal Newport 'A bold vision ... lights the way to fewer hours, less stress, and more meaning' - Adam Grant Workers across all demographics, industries, and socioeconomic levels report exhaustion, burnout, and the wish for more meaningful lives. Drawing on years of research, Brigid Schulte traces the arc of our discontent from a time before the 1980s, when work was more compatible with well-being and many jobs enabled a single earner to support a family, until today, with millions of people working multiple hourly jobs or in white-collar positions where no hours are ever off duty. She casts a wide net in search of solutions, exploring the movement to institute a four-day workweek, introducing Japan's Housewives Brigade - which demands legal protection for family time - and embedding with CEOs who are making the business case for humane conditions. Rich with stories and informed by deep investigation, Over Work lays out a clear vision for ending our punishing grind and reclaiming leisure, joy, and meaning.

The Basecamp Manifesto
It is often said that it is lonely at the top. But this loneliness can be dangerous, not only to the leader but also to the led. It turns out we hold our environments as we are held. If we are not held in a caring and daring fashion, it shows up in how we live and lead. The Basecamp Manifesto is a formative work on developing and sustaining leadership skills. Here, Terence Young outlines the development of a changed narrative around leading organizations. Rather than the often-stereotyped perception of leadership as a solitary ascent to the top—followed often by an equally solitary descent down the leadership peak—Young has created a framework for leadership that relies on developing a â...
