Free Download Out of Office: The Big Problem and Bigger Promise of Working from Home
Description
The future isn't about where we will work, but how. For years we have struggled to balance work and life, with most of us feeling overwhelmed and burned out because our relationship to work is broken. This "isn't just a book about remote work. It's a book that helps us imagine a future where our lives--at the office and home--are happier, more productive, and genuinely meaningful" (Charles Duhigg, bestselling author of The Power of Habit).If you think you've been working from home recently, Charlie Warzel and Anne Helen Petersen are here to tell you otherwise. What we've been doing is something else entirely, a jury-rigged compromise made under the duress of a national crisis that's satisfactory for neither the worker nor the employer. For Warzel and Petersen, the past year has revealed that there may be another path forward for work, one that doesn't involve hellish daily commutes and the demands of jam-packed work schedules that no longer make sense. As a society, we have talked for decades about flexible work arrangements. In this book, the authors make clear that we are at an inflection point where this becomes possible for many companies and their employees.
