Overview

Hacking Work blows the cover off the biggest open secret in the working world. Today's top performers are taking matters into their own hands by bypassing sacred structures, using forbidden tools, and ignoring silly rules to increase their productivity and job satisfaction. This audio book reveals a multitude of powerful technological and social hacks, and shows listeners how bringing these methods out into the open can help them maximize their efficiency and satisfaction with work. Hacking work is the act of getting what you need to do your best by exploiting loopholes and creating workarounds. It is taking the usual ways of doing things and bypassing them to produce improved results. Hacking work is getting the system to work for you, not just the other way around...making it easier to do great work.

Reviews

The way we're working today sucks. If you've realized that fact, and your organization isn't doing anything about it, Hacking Work will help you achieve your results and not go insane waiting for those around you to wake up. <br> -Cali Ressler and Jody Thompson, cocreators of the Results-Only Work Environment (ROWE) and coauthors of Why Work Sucks and How to Fix It <br> Anyone frustrated by burdensome rituals and processes can now take responsibility for their own success. Jensen and Klein irreverently and cleverly show us the power of hacking work and taking responsibility for one's own success. The ideas within Hacking Work will foster the innovation and creativity so badly needed in these times. <br> -Dave Ulrich, professor, Ross School of Business, and coauthor of The Why of Work <br> Hacking Work is a refreshing antidote to what passes for business wisdom today. Sure, organizations need structure and processes. But to get your work done, you need this book.n
