How Work Is Broke And What You Can Do To Fix It

Marc Orphant has contributed a very interesting, and useful, chapter to The More Space Project (Astronaut Projects).

It goes into why work is broken.

But even better Marc details exactly what they've done in his company to fix it.

He explains how they've fixed meetings, fixed email use (including the dreaded subject line: Re: FW: FW: FW: Regarding). They've even fixed presentations.

It's like I've always said Powerpoint is not the problem - it's peoples dependence on it as a crutch that's the problem.

Anyway Marc and company have taken bits from gurus and books and welded them into a way of working that is better than it was.

Worth reading just for the story about Bill at the beginning!
