Why a 4-Day Week Works w. Andrew Barnes

In the world of public markets and quarterly reporting, it is easy to forget the power of company culture. Andrew Barnes is a financier and entrepreneur turned workplace culture crusader. He joins us to talk about the four-day workweek movement he is spearheading. 

Andrew’s eclectic career has spanned banking, tech entrepreneurship, acquisitions, and more. He talks about how he was unhappy in life while he was in banking and the moves he made to end up in a position where his work didn’t provide only money but meaning too. 

Andrew had a complete change of heart about what good leadership meant at one point in his journey. He talks about the huge investments he started to make in his teams and the payoffs they led to. 

The most recent effort in this respect is the practice of only working four days per week. The conversation with Andrew Barnes highlights the significant benefits these shifts bring not only to productivity but to the levels of enrichment his employees feel.
