Work
Should we work less? And is it even possible? Microsoft Japan is the latest company to experiment with a 4-day working week and the results are (for some) surprising. Naturally enough, almost all employees approved the change, which allowed them extra time for family, self-development and volunteering. The surprising finding is that, despite working 20% less time, sales went up 40% compared to the same month the previous year. So rather than working longer and harder, could we all shift to working smarter and more effectively? Could you deliver the same or more value in 5 hours a day?
