S2 Ep7: The Four-Day Work Week with Phil McParlane from 4dayweek.io
b'
In this episode, Phil McParlane, founder and CEO of 4dayworkweek.io, shares his insightful take on the four-day work week and why it\\u2019s a far more valuable practice than people give it credit for.\\xa0
\\n\\n
\\u201cIf you worked five hours in a row, the fifth hour would definitely be less productive than the first,\\u201d he explains. \\u201cIt\\u2019s the same logic with the traditional work week; stuff just doesn\\u2019t get done on Fridays.\\u201d
\\n\\n
As a pioneer of the four-day work week movement, Phil has changed the lives of thousands of employees, encouraging more than 100 companies worldwide to confront the evidence in support of the four-day week and realize the positive impact that this shift can have.\\xa0
\\n\\n
Given that 99% of companies which have started the four-day week have stuck with it, Phil is not surprised at all that more people are embracing it as standard practice (including Literal Humans! Read about our four-day week journey here).\\xa0
\\n\\n
Even so, we struggle to wrap our heads around the mind-blowing success that the four-day week has had as a job benefit (Phil has had to turn off job listings due to the sheer number of applications received!) Listen to us go over the challenges of a four-day week, possible limitations to making this practice global, and finally, Phil McParlane\\u2019s idea of one of the evillest uses of technology \\u2014 see if it rings a bell?
\\n\\n
\\nMost people want a four-day work week, but most companies currently don\\u2019t offer it. That\'s the standard that Phil is trying to change \\u2014 and he intends to change it forever.\\xa0
