About Work Without Walls: An Executive's Guide To
Product Description Unleash Your Team’s Genius In the knowledge economy, your team’s brainpower—their intellect, creativity, learning capacity, and decision-making ability—is the key factor in their success at work. And their scattered focus dilutes that brainpower, hindering your organization’s ability to succeed. Today's "always-on" work culture too often prevents your staff from producing what matters most: ideas, innovation, and meaningful results. How can you and your team be successful when exhaustion and frustration from 24/7 communications, changing priorities, and constant distractions are the norm? Executives must protect their teams (and themselves!) from the high cost of chronic stress and burn-out. To achieve this and improve your company’s results, you must invest in how well you and your teams manage attention. When employees master attention management, they are more successful, engaged, and productive. In Work Without Walls, Maura Nevel Thomas describes how to create a culture that improves productivity by focusing on: Attention management Efficient communication strategies Achieving the most significant results Off-site work with healthy boundaries Office design that supports collaborative and focused work Vacation and downtime Work-life balance Holistic well-being In this book, you will discover specific action items you can implement now to make personal shifts and organizational changes that will support the well-being and long-term success of your team and your organization.

Her new book is a must read for business owners, senior executives and team leaders who have a "people" culture and a set of core values that focus on caring, trust, challenge and growth. --Ed Stillman, CEO Coach and Chair, Vistage International Work Without Walls offers an important perspective on productivity and attention in the changing business environment that I haven't seen in other business media. Not only does the author sound the alarm about critical and emerging business issues, but she provides an easy-to-follow blueprint for navigating and implementing solutions.

It's those gifts that will power the world into a successful future and that will allow us to realize the promise of our individual and collective potential.
