In 2011, the author of this book took on a global research project on work productivity. He tested a number of hypotheses about what factors increase productivity. To do this, the author and a team of like-minded people compiled a special survey and tested it on managers and subordinates. A study was also conducted on the most effective length of the workweek. As a result, the main mystery of high productivity was revealed, which is based on seven methods of “smart work”. All of them are described in detail on the pages of this book. You will learn how to work on yourself and interact with others, and also read how to find a balance between work and leisure. The book is intended for those who want to spend less time on responsibilities, but at the same time work more efficiently. Theoretical knowledge is supplemented with practical recommendations, tests and mini-questionnaires.
