From the jacket flap

The way we work has changed. The era of toiling from nine-to-five, five-days-a-week in the office is now a relic of the past, and is being replaced by a better way--flexible work. But flexibility means a lot more than a day or two a week of "working from home" 93% of your employees want more flexibility in when, not just where, they work. They want choice and they are leaving their jobs to find it.

The most successful leaders will go much further than offering occasional remote work days--they will redesign every aspect of how work gets done, from defining how they measure organizational success to training their managers to make it happen.

How the Future Works: Leading Flexible Teams to Do The Best Work of Their Lives offers a blueprint for using flexible work to unlock the potential of your people. It offers the steps necessary for building the new principles and guardrails to empower flexible, high-performing teams. And it teaches readers to lead with purpose, to manage and measure differently, and to believe that by letting go, they'll get more back than they thought possible.
