Reviews
"Ms. Perlow's advice should be taken seriously" -- The Economist "So if you are looking for a way to be more effective as a manager, or team leader, turn off your phone and read Sleeping with Your Smartphone ." -- The Chronicle Herald " Sleeping with Your Smartphone , should be required reading for any senior executive concerned about the dysfunctionality of "always-on" connectivity." -- The Observer (UK) " Sleeping with Your Smartphone provides excellent, proven principles for how to bring change into an existing corporate culture and how to empower employees to join in the fight to make the company better." -- Examiner.com "If you're looking for a book title that captures the frazzled, anxious life of executives who are too worried about work to ever unplug, you probably couldn't do better than Harvard Business School professor Leslie Perlow's new book, Sleeping With Your Smartphone ." -- The Globe and Mail "Leslie Perlow makes a strong case that you do not have to sleep with your smartphone, at least not every night." -- Fort Worth Star-Telegram " Sleeping With Your Smartphone will enlighten any team trying to sync among themselves while questioning the worthwhile of on-demand accessibility." -- Business Insider ADVANCE PRAISE "Professionals of all kinds complain about the difficulty of balancing life and work, but no one has had much insight about how to fix the problem...until Leslie Perlow went out and did it. This book should be required reading for every consultant, manager, HR professional, and working parent with a demanding career." -- Chip Heath, coauthor, Switch: How to Change Things When Change Is Hard "Leslie Perlow has given us a modern masterpiece, the only book that really shows how to harness those irresistible electronic intruders that now invade our lives. Sleeping with Your Smartphone is packed with evidence and specific, useful steps for building productive and creative workplaces that bolster rather than destroy our sanity and humanity." -- Robert I. Sutton, professor, Stanford University; author, Good Boss, Bad Boss "Leslie Perlow, one of today's leading experts in how organizations really function, has applied her prowess to a question that bedevils every professional: what impact does working harder and longer have on our achievements and our happiness? The answers in this marvelous book reveal that keeping our lives in balance is more important than we ever imagined--for ourselves and our organizations." -- Clayton M. Christensen, author, How Will You Measure Your Life? "Who doesn't want to build more effective and engaged teams? Sleeping with Your Smartphone illustrates counterintuitive insights and practical actions to 'get it all done' in our multitasking, hyperconnected world. The book shows how teams can improve work-life balance and increase company engagement while upping their output--all with a few small, doable steps." -- Sara LaPorta, Senior Vice President, PepsiCo " Sleeping with Your Smartphone challenges the current belief that 24/7 is required for success and that we are hostages to our devices. Leslie Perlow's strategy is brilliant because it proves that we can improve the way we live and work...by disconnecting." -- Kristin C. Peck, Executive Vice President, Worldwide Business Development & Innovation, Pfizer Inc. "Truly inspiring! Sleeping with Your Smartphone shows that even in the most high-pressure environments, it is possible to disconnect and become more productive as a result.

Synopsis
In Sleeping with Your Smartphone , Harvard Business School professor and ethnographer Leslie Perlow delves into the new connected world of work and challenges the notion that you must be constantly plugged in to be successful. Furthermore, her work and her research suggests, this 24/7 mentality is actually counterproductive. Based on her latest research, the author recommends a radical yet simple idea: take "disconnected" time off and both individual and team members will benefit., Does it have to be this way? Can't resist checking your smartphone or mobile device? Sure, all this connectivity keeps you in touch with your team and the office--but at what cost? In Sleeping with Your Smartphone , Harvard Business School professor Leslie Perlow reveals how you can disconnect and become more productive in the process. In fact, she shows that you can devote more time to your personal life and accomplish more at work. The good news is that this doesn't require a grand organizational makeover or buy-in from the CEO. All it takes is collaboration between you and your team--working together and making small, doable changes. What started as an experiment with a six-person team at The Boston Consulting Group--one of the world's elite management consulting firms--triggered a global initiative that eventually spanned more than nine hundred BCG teams in thirty countries across five continents. These teams confronted their nonstop workweeks and changed the way they worked, becoming more efficient and effective. The result? Employees were more satisfied with their work-life balance and with their work in general. And the firm was better able to recruit and retain employees. Clients also benefited--often in unexpected ways. In this engaging book, Perlow takes you inside BCG to witness the challenges and benefits of disconnecting. She provides a step-by-step guide to introducing change on your team--by establishing a collective goal, encouraging open dialogue, ensuring leadership support--and then spreading change to the rest of your firm. If you and your colleagues are grappling with the "always on" problem, it's time to disconnect--and start reading.

    Shipping was quick, packaging was excellent, condition was acceptable as described -- binding loose but pages intact. I did message buyer asking about mold and didn't receive a reply -- luckily, there appears to be no mold. Great value for a 100+ yr old book!

    I received my book in absolutely pristine condition, better than described! Which is impressive because the copy is from 1930 and it looks like it has never been handled. It shipped very quickly, even faster than the estimated time given by a week. It was packaged very carefully. The book and shipping price was also very fair considering the age and condition of the book and the shipping speed. I am very pleased with this seller and will be ordering from them again in the future.

    I am always a little nervous when ordering books off of eBay but this seller has provided me with an EXCELLENT purchasing experience! The packaging was superior and I am grateful because this is a signed first edition and we all know how the post office can be at times. The Shipping was timely and the item actually arrived quicker than expected. The item EXCEEDED the description. It is stunning. I have dropped it off at my antiquarian for authors signature verification but the value is high.
