Theres Got To Be A Better Way

The most useful book on creating enduring organizational change I have ever read (Robert Sutton, author of The No Asshole Rule)The chaos of everyday business forces people into an exhausting, ineffective, seemingly never-ending cycle of work-arounds, firefighting, and Whac-a-Mole. The irritatingly urgent crowds out the lastingly important.There has to be a better way.And there is: the game-changing discipline of dynamic work design improves productivity, reduces costs, and increases efficiency, ensuring that all parts of a company can work in concert. It has been used in organizations around the world to close the gap between results promised and results delivered.The five principles of dynamic work design-solve the right problem, structure for discovery, connect the human chain, regulate for flow, visualize the work-have yielded breakthrough results in settings ranging from biotech labs and hospitals to oil refineries, homeless shelters, and casinos.Large-scale change initiatives, reorganizations, and productivity programs are costly, rarely improve productivity, and always add a lot of busywork. Theres Got to Be a Better Way is an antidote, transforming how you understand your own tasks and your organizations workflow, allowing you to redesign your work to boost productivity, profit and genuine engagement.
