"In this timely manifesto, the authors of the New York Times bestseller Rework broadly reject the prevailing notion that long hours, aggressive hustle, and "whatever it takes" are required to run a successful business today." -- From Amazon.com summary.
Fried and Hansson reject the prevailing notion that long hours, aggressive hustle, and "whatever it takes" are required to run a successful business today. They believe the answer to better productivity isn't more hours-- it's less waste and fewer things that induce distraction and persistent stress. No matter the size of your company, Fried and Hansson show you what needs to be done-- and how you can do it, too. -- adapted from jacket

My fav of the 37 Signals books.
5 stars for how concise and on point a lot of the chapters are.
I don't agree with everything, but love the strong opinions and perspectives, and the central theme of the book ❤️ Loads of great, practical wisdom.
I would recommend this book to CEOs of small companies without desires to sell their company, compete with the big firms, or work with the Fortune 500. If you're not in this group you'll find this book useful to achieve a wonderful company culture.
Solid 4 stars. I really enjoyed all the concepts and completely agree, but it was a bit too pithy and Food Rules for me to give it 5. I'm also intensely curious how Basecamp employees feel. CEOs always think they're doing better than they are.
Une entreprise stable plutôt qu'une course à la croissance, se centrer sur quelque chose unique mais le faire bien, respecter ses collaborateurs pour construire quelque chose ensemble. Ce livre devrait être lu par toute personne désireuse de créer son entreprise ou en dirigeant une.
