It Doesn’t Have to Be Crazy at Work

De: Jason Fried, David Heinemeier Hansson

Narrado por: Eileen Stevens

Jason Fried and David Heinemeier Hansson, the authors of the New York Times bestseller Rework, are back with a manifesto to combat all your modern workplace worries and fears.

It Doesn’t Have to Be Crazy at Work is a direct successor to Rework, the instant bestseller that showed readers a new path to working effectively. Now Fried and Heinemeier Hansson have returned with a new strategy for the ideal company culture – what they call “the calm company”. It is a direct attack on the chaos, anxiety and stress that plagues millions of workplaces and billions of people working their day jobs.

Working to breaking point with long hours, excessive business, and a lack of sleep have become a badge of honour for many people these days, when it should be a mark of stupidity. This isn’t just a problem for large organisations; individuals, contractors and solopreneurs are burning themselves out in the very same way. As the authors reveal, the answer isn’t more hours. Rather, it’s less waste and fewer things that induce distraction, always-on anxiety and stress.

It is time to stop celebrating crazy and start celebrating calm.

Reseñas de la Crítica

!This book is funny, well written and iconoclastic and by far the best thing on management published this year." (The Economist)

Wake up call

For anyone feeling burnt out, overworked, scrambling, always busy but never feel like you’re ever getting anything done.

This is pretty much for you.

And if you’re a entrepreneur who wants a company you and the people around you can be proud of.

This is pretty much for you too.

Every business person needs to read this!

I loved reading this. The boon is thought-provoking, very relatable, and filled with clear and actionable points.

Enjoyable short book full of inspiration

I enjoyed all parts of this book. May be little more examples from Basecamp’s history would be welcome but the points came across well and well argued, defended.
I can recommend this book to everyone who tries to design a good human place to work for people.

Awesome book

As the previous ones, with the stamp of 37signals, this book show you, most of all, that its possible. That is possible to respect people as you always asked, to work focused but without stress and also that people actually work better and are efficient. Very well written, and without any doubt one MUST HAVE. Thanks for this awesome time you’ve gave me

Common sense

A collection of common sense statements with no revelations or insights. Most of it is the author patting themselves on the back for the choices that they made. Book os rather boring.
