In this timely manifesto, the authors of a New York Times bestseller reject the notion that long hours and aggressive hustle are essential for business success. Building on their previous work, they present a bold strategy for creating an ideal company culture, termed "the calm company." This approach directly addresses the chaos, anxiety, and stress that affect millions of workplaces and workers daily. Long hours and excessive workloads have become badges of honor, but the authors argue that they should be seen as marks of foolishness. This issue extends beyond large organizations; individuals, contractors, and solopreneurs are also experiencing burnout. The key to improved productivity lies not in working longer but in reducing waste and minimizing distractions and stress. Fried and Hansson advocate for celebrating Calm over Crazy. Their own company culture at Basecamp has embraced "Calm" for twenty years, providing proof of its effectiveness. This book serves as a practical and inspiring guide, showcasing their insights and experiences. It offers a roadmap for managers and executives across industries to implement these principles, demonstrating that a more balanced approach to work is not only possible but beneficial for all.

Hier werden keine Management-Phrasen nachgebetet, hier verraten echte Macher das Geheimnis ihres Erfolges.

Now programmers can get the job done right and still leave work on time. The book has been updated to take advantage of all the new Rails 1.2 features. The sample application uses migrations, Ajax, features a REST interface, and illustrates new Rails features. There are new chapters on migrations, active support, active record, and action controller (including the new resources-based routing). The Web 2.0 and deployment chapters have been completely rewritten to reflect the latest thinking. Now, you can learn which environments are best for your style application, and see how Capistrano makes managing your site simple. All the remaining chapters have been extensively updated. Finally, hundreds of comments from readers of the first edition have been incorporated, making this book simply the best available
