Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the complex interplay between work hours and career advancement in the corporate world. It argues that the relentless pursuit of long hours, often seen as a marker of dedication and ambition, can lead to inefficiencies and even hinder true productivity. The author examines the concept of "adverse selection" in the workplace, where employers may prioritize the hiring and promotion of those willing to work excessive hours, creating a culture of overwork. Through meticulous research and case studies, the book explores the psychological and organizational factors that contribute to this phenomenon. It sheds light on the hidden costs of overwork and its impact on employee well-being, creativity, and overall organizational performance. Ultimately, the author challenges the notion that long hours are synonymous with success, advocating for a more balanced and sustainable approach to work and life. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
