Fake Work is What You Think it is…and So Much More

FAKE WORK is just what you think it is: it is all about the meetings, emails, conference calls, and silly training that The Office makes fun of, but it is so much more. It’s what well-intentioned, hard-working people do every day. It targets the hard, dedicated, overtime, weekend, and committed work that adds no value because it is not linked to the critical work an organization needs to be doing.

Real People Struggling with Fake Work.

With real-world stories—through the eyes of people struggling with fake work—this book examines the big issues of organizational strategy, team alignment, and the work that drives strategy to the daily tasks that really matter. FAKE WORK is all about companies failing to do what is in the company’s best interest and having its people working, productively toward the same end.
