Description

An impassionedand data-drivencase for a four-day workweek.

The five-day workweek is a pillar of modern life, but it isnt backed by science, ancient wisdom, or divine decree. Its simply a relic of the industrial ageand its time for an upgrade. What if we could accomplish more while working fewer days?

A shortened workweek once seemed like a radical idea. Today, its embraced by innovative business leaders, forward-thinking politicians, and a new generation of workers demanding more meaningful work.

In Do More in Four, Joe OConnor, a pioneer in designing and leading four-day-workweek pilots around the globe, and journalist Jared Lindzon, whose work has appeared in the New York Times, Fortune, and TIME magazine, present a groundbreaking, data-driven exploration of why a four-day workweek isnt merely possibleits necessary in the age of artificial intelligence.

OConnor and Lindzon draw on extensive research, compelling case studies, and personal interviews with expertsincluding a Nobel Prize-winning economist and Bill Gatesto reveal how organizations are reimagining work. From a consumer products giant in New Zealand to a global nonprofit, a Canadian law firm, and a Midwestern architecture firm, they take readers inside the companies transforming their work models to improve employee outcomes while driving revenue growth.

Do More in Four offers a battle-tested blueprint for a smarter, more humane approach to work.
