Review

"If you work, you need this book! Cali and Jody share the secrets of the most radical workplace experiment the Fortune 500 have ever seen. Want 35% greater productivity while going to the movies on a Wednesday afternoon or taking Fridays off? Make the switch from hours to outcomes."
-Timothy Ferriss, #1 New York Times bestselling author of The 4-Hour Workweek

"ROWE is a chance for everyone to learn a better way to work. It encourages people to contribute rather than just show up and grind out their days."
-Brad Anderson, CEO, Best Buy (from the Foreword)

"Now, this changes everything. Buy this book. Act on what you read."
-Cindy Froggatt, author of Work Naked

"This is like TiVo for your work."
-BusinessWeek

"It is a fundamental shift away from 'face time' or 'chair time' to just one consideration: Did the employee get the job done?"
-Minneapolis Star-Tribune

"The freedom, employees say, is changing their lives. They don't know if they work fewer hours-they've stopped counting-but they are more productive."
-Time

"A remarkably persuasive and mind-bending book. Family-friendly, too."
-Joan Blades, cofounder MomsRising.org and Moveon.org
