Businesses and society endorse busyness, overwork, and extreme commitment as the most valued traits in workers. Sometimes that endorsement is explicit, as when Elon Musk told X\/Twitter employees to work \u0026amp;#x27;long hours at high intensity\u0026amp;#x27; or get fired. More often it\u0026amp;#x27;s an implicit contract, a buildup of organisational and cultural norms and the adoption of new technologies that make it easy to tether people to work.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEither way, this workaholic behaviour is unhealthy and counterproductive for workers \u003ci\u003eand\u003c\/i\u003e for organisations. It\u0026amp;#x27;s time to fight back. Malissa Clark - a preeminent researcher on the culture of overwork - shows you how in \u003ci\u003eNever Not Working\u003c\/i\u003e. Clark examines overwork and burnout, not just from the individual\u0026amp;#x27;s perspective but from an organisational perspective too. She delivers a comprehensive, nuanced definition of workaholism, busting myths along the way - working long hours, it turns out, doesn\u0026amp;#x27;t automatically make you a workaholic. She also helps you assess whether you\u0026amp;#x27;re falling prey to the phenomenon and whether you\u0026amp;#x27;re creating workaholics in your organisation.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eClark shows you how to escape the trap of putting work at the centre of everything and thus losing your well-being - or your company\u0026amp;#x27;s performance - in the process. Deeply researched and written for everyone from leaders to individual contributors, \u003ci\u003eNever Not Working\u003c\/i\u003e is the essential guide to identifying workaholism in yourself and others and starting on the road to recovery.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ships in 10 to 15 days","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46836341080222,"sku":"ADS-9781647825096","price":55.78,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0400\/9043\/5742\/files\/9781647825096.jpg?v=1778738276","url":"https:\/\/classicbargains.com.au\/products\/9781647825096","provider":"Classic Bargains Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
