Hello and welcome back to Snafu, a podcast about behavior change!
For today's episode, I sat down with Alex Soojung-Kim Pang, a Silicon Valley-based author, consultant, and researcher famous for advocating for the 4-day work week.
Alex has become a leading advocate for the concept of "deliberate rest" through his books Rest: Why You Get More Done When You Work Less and Work Less, Do More.
Alex challenges traditional notions of productivity, arguing that strategic periods of rest and shorter working hours lead to higher productivity, more creativity, and better job satisfaction.
In this episode, we talk about why we should work less and not more, the importance of deliberate rest in work, breaking work down into smaller tasks, and much more.
Alex is also an official speaker at Responsive Conference 2024! If you haven't yet, get your tickets here: https://www.responsiveconference.com/tickets
