About this ebook
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:
#1 The unwritten rule about time applies to just about everyone, from administrative assistants to the senior leadership. With the exception of sales people, who either deliver their numbers or don’t, most people are judged by a mixture of results and time spent in the office.
#2 When we try to live our lives under the new set of demands but under the old set of assumptions, we get the stories that opened this chapter. We get burned-out, frustrated people struggling to reconcile the old and the new.
#3 The clock distorts our behavior. We are not just doing our job, but making sure our job fits into a forty-hour workweek that happens between eight and five. We are turned into liars by the clock, and we are not able to be innovative or creative because we are constantly being judged on how much time we spend working.
#4 We have these attitudes about time because of one thing: belief. We believe that time is power, and we let it have this power over us because of how flimsy our assumptions about work are.
