Last night we hosted a games night with colleagues across the software dev and other teams. Great way to get to know other colleagues we don’t often work with, learn about culture and favourite games, and it’s great for team building.
Colleagues who come from all over the world and ended up working in Newcastle. Love it! ❤️

Side note: businesses need to do more to support this level of interaction, it does us good and benefits morale and team building.

I was recommended the book Essentialism by Greg McKeown. I received my copy yesterday, started reading. So far I dislike the writing style :-) but the message is powerful. Hopefully I'll be able to use it to pivot my current role from being a person that helps everywhere to more focused work.

Any feedback from people who read it?

Essentialism - The Disciplined Pursuit of Less by Greg McKeown

In Essentialism, Greg McKeown draws on experience and insight from working with the leaders of the most innovative companies in the world to show how to achieve the disciplined pursuit of less.

The four-day workweek is not only a boon for worker wellbeing; it can address tough, persistent organizational challenges like employee engagement.

So, what’s stopping the 4-day workweek?

What’s Stopping the 4-Day Workweek?

If the four-day workweek creates happier employees without a loss in productivity, why isn’t it more common in the United States? To answer this question, we asked our audience about what holds their companies back from adopting a shorter workweek, and collected any other questions they had about it. We brought those questions to Jared Lindzon and Joe O’Connor, authors of the new book, Do More in Four: Why It’s Time for a Shorter Workweek.  They argue that the four-day workweek is not only a boon for worker wellbeing; it can address tough, persistent organizational challenges like employee engagement. In this Q&A, they share why—and provide practical responses to questions ranging from how this could work in industries with billable hours to how to build a case for a shorter workweek at your organization.
