## Description

Forget the old concept of the 9-5. Companies around the world are redesigning the work week to increase efficiency, health, productivity and happiness in their workers. A growing number of businesses are shortening their working week to address problems with low productivity, poor mental health and unequal working opportunities. Workers are still paid the same salary for a four-day week and the results are revolutionary. In Shorter , bestselling author Alex Pang studies these trailblazing businesses where managers are reporting their teams to be: - More creative in their problem solving - Happier and with lower stress and anxiety and cases of burn out - More productive Pang will reveal, step by step, how they have gone about making these changes, the challenges and solutions and, most importantly, how you can do the same.
