Less is more? Insights from a 4 day workweek

A 4-day workweek. Sounds idyllic. That's exactly my week - the whole company has Fridays off. From Monday to Thursday, we work 8 hours each day, managing to wrap up our work in 32 hours.

Wow. Behind this wow effect is an appropriate organization culture, good goal setting, and alignment with clients who work the regular 40 hours.

But is it always wow? Isn't there a temptation to "crank up" more hours when a project is on fire? Are there any hidden costs and pitfalls?

I've been working this way for over 2.5 years, and I'm eager to share with you my thoughts on the 4-day workweek, flexibility, and the boundaries between work and life. And why the 4-day workweek movement has gained popularity in recent years.
