Episode notes
Fix Work Experience, Not Breaks
- Burnout results more from how work is structured than just from workload.
- The solution is to improve daily work experience rather than only increasing off-work breaks.
Use 'Wedges' for White Space
- Insert short breaks called "wedges" between meetings or tasks to create productive white space.
- Use this time to reflect, recuperate, prepare, and boost creative thinking and interaction quality.
Use Asynchronous Communication
- Replace some meetings with asynchronous voice or video messages to save time.
- This method allows quick exchanges without the need for everyone to be present simultaneously.
