Description

A breathless and revolutionary new guide on how to change the ways your company works forever, to increase productivity, profits and staff morale. The way we work is broken. Despite the enthusiasm that surrounded the emergence of hybrid working, the same problems persist- it takes forever to get anything done, meetings and emails are unceasingly incessant, and bureaucracy continues to stifle creativity and talent. Is this really the best we can do Aaron Dignan has built a career teaching companies how to eliminate the red tape, tap into collective intelligence, and rethink long-held traditions that no longer make sense - and, in doing so, foster genuine innovation, loyalty and growth. In Brave New Work, he uses stories and experiences gathered from that career to lay out a fearless manifesto for a new type of work. This book will show you how to transform your team, department or business from the inside out, making work more adaptable, enjoyable and human. It's packed with tactics and tips for updating your company's operating system- the assumptions so deeply embedded within your organization that you don't even know you're being crippled by them. Learn how to reignite passion and energy throughout your organization, how to fight against the Great Resignation, and, ultimately, how to build a company that runs itself.
