Publisher's Synopsis
The World Health Organization estimates that American businesses lose more than $300 billion a year due to stress experienced by employees, and recent research by Harvard Medical School found that more than 95 percent of leaders felt at least somewhat burnt-out. For individuals and organizations who want to thrive in today's high-pressure, 24-7 business environment, working even longer is not the solution. To maximize your performance and well-being over the long-term, you need to work stronger.
Leveraging the latest research in behavior change, psychology, nutrition, exercise science, sleep, and stress management, Work Stronger is a practical, step-by-step blueprint for ambitious professionals and organizations who want to have more energy, less stress, and higher performance. The book also features insights from interviews with more than twenty-five prominent leaders and influencers who exemplify what it means to work stronger, including the president and CEO of Levi Strauss, Barack Obama's secretary of commerce, and the former CEO of Twitter.
Work Stronger exposes the biggest myths on high performance and workplace wellness, while addressing deadly mistakes that decrease energy, increase stress, and reduce performance at work.
