Introduction: A Chance Discovery
As I boarded a flight from New Zealand to London, little did I know that an article in The Economist would change the course of my career and potentially reshape the future of work. The piece revealed a startling statistic: office workers in the UK and Canada were productive for only 2.5 hours in a typical eight-hour workday. This revelation set my mind racing. If this was true for my own company, Perpetual Guardian, how could we improve productivity and well-being simultaneously? The spark of an idea began to form. What if we could compress the work week into four days instead of five? Could we maintain 100% productivity while working 80% of the time, all while keeping 100% of the pay? This concept, which I later dubbed the 100-80-100 rule, became the foundation of a revolutionary approach to work.
