Why Work Doesn’t Happen at Work
It’s no secret that I am a big fan of 37signals, and it made my day when this TED Video was posted. 37signals’ Jason Fried explains the sad irony that people do not find their offices to be the place where they actually get work done. He blames both managers and meetings – two involuntary forces that interrupt work. Creative people (including engineers and developers) need blocks of uninterrupted time.
Managers, you owe it to yourselves and your employees to watch Jason’s presentation and rethink the way you manage.
