4 Companies with a 4 Day Week ๐Ÿ”ฅ

Before we get to the companies...

One of my favourite quotes:

"I wish I'd spent more time in meetings, than I did with my loved ones"

Nobody (2023)

And my 2nd favourite quote:

  • Most 60 minute meetings could be 30 minutes.
  • Most 30 minute meetings could be 15 minutes.
  • And most meetings could be an email.

On a serious note though... can we normalise having fewer meetings? ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™‚๏ธ

This is usually the first thing a company changes when they switch to a 4 day work week:

  1. Shorter meetings
  2. Fewer meetings
  3. Less people

For example, did you know that Shopify banned all recurring meetings earlier this year? And guess what happened... productivity increased. They expect to complete 25 percent more projects this year ๐Ÿ’ช
