annoying characters I’ve loved the other books she’s written but this was not good. Very confused at someone who would think their colleagues were family- seems kind of weird and toxic. Like obviously, you should make friends and build community but ...more |

nothing makes sense Nothing in this book made any sense. The motivations of the characters and their actions were completely illogical. Secondary characters were flat and one dimensional. The MFC was really dumb. I thought it would be a cute concept, ...more |

“In white water rafting, riders battle waves, heavy rapids, and unpredictable drops. They have to hustle hard to avoid obstacles, respond quickly to changing river conditions, and paddle with all of their strength to safely reach their destination. These heart-pounding bursts of strenuous activity are punctuated by periods of rest, when the water becomes calm enough that riders can float and enjoy the scenery. As any experienced river guide will tell you, the ideal trip is comprised of both hustle and floating—a balance between focused exertion and intentional recovery.

The need for constant teaching and learning. An emphasis on the quality of the work produced over quantity. The requirement that creative workers be recognized by the organization as assets rather than costs to be minimized. Sounds pretty great, right? There’s just one problem. As Drucker put it, “each of these requirements (except perhaps the last one) is almost the exact opposite of what is needed to increase the productivity of manual workers.” Yikes. He’s right. How can we, as creatives, excel in workplaces that equate performance with metrics like the”
