Discover the compelling and data-driven case for transforming the traditional five-day workweek with *Do More in Four*. While the five-day workweek has long been a cornerstone of modern life, it is surprisingly not supported by scientific research, ancient wisdom, or divine decree. Instead, it is a relic of the industrial age, and the time has come to rethink and upgrade our approach to work. What if we could accomplish more while working fewer days? This provocative question is at the heart of this groundbreaking book.
Once considered a radical idea, a shortened workweek is now gaining widespread acceptance among innovative business leaders, forward-thinking politicians, and a new generation of workers seeking more meaningful and balanced work lives. In *Do More in Four*, Joe O'Connor—an expert in designing and leading four-day-workweek pilots worldwide—and journalist Jared Lindzon, whose work has appeared in the *New York Times*, *Fortune*, and *TIME* magazine, present a comprehensive, evidence-based exploration of why a four-day workweek is not only feasible but essential in the age of artificial intelligence.
The authors draw on extensive research, compelling case studies, and personal interviews with renowned experts—including a Nobel Prize–winning economist and Bill Gates—to illustrate how organizations are reimagining their work models. 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 companies that are transforming their work environments to enhance employee well-being while simultaneously increasing revenue growth.
*Do More in Four* offers a battle-tested blueprint for adopting a smarter, more humane approach to work. This book provides practical insights and proven strategies for organizations seeking to innovate and adapt in a rapidly changing world, making a strong case for why the four-day workweek is not just desirable but necessary for future success.
