Hacking Work

One of "Harvard Business Reviews"'s "Breakthrough ideas for 2010."
We all want to do our best and do it efficiently. But companies love bureaucracy, their old technologies, and calcified procedures. We all get frustrated at work; now some of us are doing something about it.
Today's top performers are taking matters into their own hands by bypassing sacred structures, using forbidden tools, and ignoring silly corporate edicts to increase their productivity and job satisfaction.
Consultant Bill Jensen teamed up with hacker Josh Klein to expose the cheat codes for work. Once employees learn how to hack their work, they get more stuff done in less time_by turning the status quo upside down. "Hacking Work" shows you how to:
* Use your own tools and technologies instead of what the company mandates
* Cut through red tape
* Circumvent almost any rule so you can work smarter, not harder
Hacking work is about making the system your servant instead of your master.
