The long hours, constant emails, and never-ending to-do lists have become the norm in today's workplaces. But Jason Fried and David Hansson say it doesn't have to be this way. In this manifesto, they challenge the dogma of the "hustle culture" and show how companies can operate with less stress, fewer distractions, and greater productivity. Through concrete examples and proven strategies, Fried and Hansson provide a roadmap for creating a calmer, more sustainable work environment - no matter the size of your organization. Discover how to eliminate time-wasting meetings, cut back on needless notifications, and set boundaries that protect your focus. It's time to reject the myth that burnout is the price of success. A saner, healthier way of working is possible.
