There's one compelling reason to read The Way We're Working Isn't Working- it works! The 100 senior leaders at the LAPD took the course on which the book is based, and while we were doubtful at first, we became believers and beneficiaries.

Be Excellent at Anything:
The Four Keys to Transforming the Way We Work and Live
(previously published as The Way We're Working Isn't Working)
Bill Bratton, Former Police Chief, LAPD
Be Excellent at Anything makes a compelling case for a new kind of workplace, a better way of working and a more deeply satisfying way of life. Employers and employees alike share an unspoken assumption that human beings are capable of operating in the same way computers do: continuously, at ever higher speeds, running multiple programs at the same time. In fact, we're designed to pulse. We're more productive and more satisfied when we move rhythmically between spending and renewing our energy across four dimensions: physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual.
The Power of Full Engagement:
Managing Energy Not Time is the Key to High Performance and Personal Renewal
At last there's a book that takes on an endemic problem in American life: why do we never have enough time and energy for the things that matter most? In lucid, transparent, and elegant prose, the authors lay out a coherent solution with unassailable logic. I can¹t imagine any person who won't find a mirror image in every section of this book.
