Great at Work

The Hidden Habits of Top Performers

Great at Work: The Hidden Habits of Top Performers, by Morten T. Hansen, is an authoritative and practical guide to individual performance, offering insights from a groundbreaking study on why some people outperform others in the workplace.

The book presents the "Seven Work Smarter Practices" that anyone can apply to maximize their time and efficiency. Through inspiring stories from the study's participants, readers will encounter a variety of individuals who have achieved remarkable success through these practices, such as a high school principal who turned around a failing institution, a rural Indian farmer improving life for women in his village, and a sushi chef earning three Michelin stars with simple yet effective preparation techniques.

Hansen's work also explores historical examples, like Alfred Hitchcock's filming of Psycho and the 1911 race to the South Pole, to illustrate the timeless application of these productivity practices. The book is filled with questions, insights, mini-quizzes, and tips to help readers identify their work strengths and weaknesses, and to develop a personalized strategy for enhanced work performance.

Comprehensive and accessible, Great at Work is designed to help readers work smarter, not harder, backed by a solid foundation of statistical analysis.
