Our next guest on the podcast - Keep Walking With Me - is Alex Soojung-Kim Pang.   

Alex studies people, technologies, and the worlds they make. His latest book SHORTER explains how companies all over the world, in a variety of industries, are shortening their working hours while improving productivity and profitability.  

SHORTER is the third in a series of books that makes the case for recognizing the value of rest in creative and prolific lives and blends science and history to better understand how we can live and work better in the digital age. His previous books, REST: WHY YOU GET MORE DONE WHEN YOU WORK LESS, and THE DISTRACTION ADDICTION, have been translated into 14 languages.   

Through his company Strategy + Rest, Alex speaks and works around the world with companies who want to apply these insights to their organizations.  Alex received a Ph.D. in history and sociology of science from the University of Pennsylvania and has been a lecturer or visiting scholar at Stanford University, UC Berkeley, Oxford University, and Microsoft Research Cambridge. Alex lives in Silicon Valley.
