Getting Work Right: Labor and Leisure in a Fragmented World
If we don’t get Sunday right, we won’t get Monday—or any day of the workweek—right.The divided life is a temptation so built into our society, we may not even recognize it.

Naughton provides real-world examples of how businesses can promote authentic human flourishment and innovation through practices and policies that support leisure.In Getting Work Right Michael Naughton will change how you work—and rest.
