Críticas

"Bruce Daisley is on a mission to change the world of work and help ordinary people to kick their addiction to digital communication. His thesis is attractive and compelling: rather than free us up, new technology is tying us to our devices and desks and raising stress and unhappiness at work with no discernible increase in productivity . . . Daisley may be the man to lead the pushback." (The Times)

"[Daisley] offers helpful tips and ways of thinking to maximise your happiness and productivity at work without giving up your soul." (Evening Standard)

"You’ve probably read a lot about the positives of side hustles and freelance life, but what if you’re committed to a career within a company? European Twitter Vice-President Bruce Daisley has some of the answers . . . Bruce’s book is a manifesto for frustrated workers." (Balance)

"Combating workplace misery has become the mission of Bruce Daisley, European VP of Twitter and host of the podcast Eat, Sleep, Work, Repeat. His latest book, The Joy Of Work, is designed to make us fall back in love with our job again . . . Daisley’s book debunks many long-held assumptions about the workplace." (Grazia)

"For many people work has become joyless, but Daisley offers some easy fixes that any employee or team could implement straight away to make work feel better again . . . Daisley has a knack of showing how easy it is to make what are really rather small day-to-day changes at work." (Book of the Month Financial Times)

‘Bruce Daisley is on a mission to change the world of work.’ The Times

From the creator of hit podcast Eat Sleep Work Repeat comes a revolutionary re-envisioning of how to enjoy your job.

In the course of a career that has taken him from some of the world's biggest media companies to Twitter, via Google and YouTube, Bruce Daisley has become fascinated by what makes great companies tick. And in his hugely popular podcast Eat Sleep Work Repeat, he has dug right into the DNA of work, talking to leading experts about how we can make our jobs more fulfilling, more productive – and much more enjoyable.

Now, in The Joy of Work, he shares the fruits of his discoveries in 30 succinct tips that range across all aspects of 21st-century office life and that combine inspiration, empirically tested insight and down-to-earth practical answers in equal measure. Are lunch breaks for wimps, or do they actually make us more productive? Is it true that you can improve team performance simply by moving the location of the kettle or coffee machine? Why are meetings so often a waste of time, and how can they be fixed? And what are Monk Mode Mornings and Hack Weeks, and why do people swear by them?

If you’re not happy with the status quo, if you want to find out how things could be done better, if you’re seeking greater fulfilment at work and a life that is less fraught, The Joy of Work will point the way.

You can begin changing your work culture today at the individual, team, and organisational levels with these tactics that increase creativity, productivity, and satisfaction.” - Daniel Pink, author of WHEN and DRIVE
