As part of its year long trial dubbed the &#8220;Working 4 Utah&#8221; initiative, the Utah state government placed more than 17,000 of its employees on a four-day workweek, increasing workdays from eight to ten hours. The program, which begin in August of 2008, has saved the state an estimated $1.8 million over that time as a result of lower electrical bills. But beyond the economics, the initiative is having profound impacts on worker well-being &#8211; employees records show decreased health complaints, less stress and fewer sick days - and the environment as well &#8211; a simple shift in commuting schedules translates into less congestion [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Since we treat people like an audience, not just a consumer, it changes the way we think about how to create ideas for our brands. But at the same time it must also change the way we think about measuring these ideas — particularly with the growing significance of social media. Audiences are not just exposed to marketing messages. They react, reject, discuss, share, contribute, create — a ripple effect of responses that conventional models for measuring advertising effectiveness tend to ignore. To truly measure the impact of our ideas, we need to shift from campaign metrics to customer motivations, [...]]]></description>

Investment advisor Cathrine Austin Fitts has written a valuable essay extolling the virtues of diversifying. Going beyond the use of diversification in financial investments, Fitts explains how diversification and wide spread network building across all facets of life can lead to improved outcomes.
She explains:
Diversification means that we invest not just in our own human capital but also in the human capital of other members of our family and those around us. In this way, we are not betting on financial assets alone to see us through. We are investing in each other because it is family, friends and communities that [...]]]></description>

We&#8217;ve found Robert Scoble&#8217;s recent post on how to social network when you&#8217;re laid off very relevant to our discussion regarding the future of work, and the emerging culture of perma-freelancing. The prolific blogger lays out 19 rock solid points of advice for anyone looking for work in this networked age. He emphasizes the need to focus all your online activities towards being the person who&#8217;s qualified for the job you&#8217;re looking for. This means maintaining a web presence with solid material based around your field &#8211; as he says: if you&#8217;re a plumber, post information about plumbing. He also [...]]]></description>

Proposed legislation compressing the working hours of employees of New York state agencies could add up to huge savings. Assemblyman Michael Gianaris is looking to require state agencies providing nonessential services to cut back their workweek to only four days. According to his calculations, trimming down work hours to 8-6 Monday through Thursday could save New York $30 million a year in building maintenance and transportation costs. This same schedule for state workers has saved Utah a respectable $3 million a year. Definitely an interesting idea to ponder. If these agencies are still getting their work done in 4 days [...]]]></description>

Guy Kawasaki has created a revealing photo essay documenting his tour of Zappos.com&#8217;s Las Vegas headquarters. The phenomenally successful online shoe retailer is probably best known for it&#8217;s over-the-top cheerful and helpful customer service. It seems that one way it achieves this upbeat customer satisfaction obsession is by keeping it&#8217;s employees comfortable and happy &#8211; really happy. From the looks of Guy&#8217;s pictures, Zappos looks like an office playground the likes of which the world hasn&#8217;t seen since the first dot-com bubble.

The problem with work is in the name. Work. From the moment the alarm goes off in the morning and we shake off the last of our slumber, we shift into autopilot as we prepare for our day at the office. It’s often so routine that many give very little thought to the actual process. For some, every moment is a painful necessity, while for others it’s energizing and a healthy component of their lives. So what’s the difference?
Play.
Play is as important as work. In fact, imagine waking up in the [...]]]></description>
