Elizabeth Harrin joins me today. We discuss her new book Managing Multiple Projects, sushi, spaghetti, side dishes, productivity, timeboxing, and more. I had a blast on this one.

Sabine Ehm joins me today. She's a research manager at Locatee. We talk about the future of the office, how much space companies need, ideal configurations, sensors, privacy, The Reset, and a bunch of other topical stuff.

Lucas Miller joins me today. Like me, he wears quite a few hats. The cognitive scientist teaches at UC Berkeley and researches productivity. We talk about technology, how we're wired, his work at Becoming Superhuman, his upcoming class at Section4, and cuddle hormones.

Dr. Laura Giurge joins me today. She is an organizational scholar, speaker, and consultant. We explore the importance of deadlines and clarity, task urgency, accountability, and the notion of pre-mortems.

My friend Karin Reed is the show's first return guest. (Evidently, I was so charming that she couldn't resist coming back.) We talk about her new book Suddenly Hybrid: Managing the Modern Meeting, HR, the future of the office, user interfaces, employee training, and, Succession.

Denise Brouder pops by today. The head of Sway Workplace shares her thoughts on a number of interesting subjects: the future of work, the creator economy, web3, the metaverse, the importance of incessantly asking why, and her five-lane theory of work.

Zoom may have introduced millions to screen-sharing, but others have been doing it for decades. Also, why are engineers innately more collaborative than most of us? I talk about these subjects and others with Till Pieper, CEO and co-founder of CoScreen.

Nick Iovacchini joins me. He is the co-founder and CEO of Kettle. The company makes software that enables hybrid work. We talk about the formation of the company, the difficulty of scheduling employees, the potential savings of hybrid work, Uber, and transparency.
