Ep 167. Bruce Dailsley: Eat Sleep Work Repeat

Bruce Daisley is European Vice President of Twitter, based in London, and his new book is called Eat Sleep Work Repeat: 30 Hacks for Bringing Joy to Your Job. Bruce joined Twitter in 2012, having previously run YouTube UK at Google. He has also worked in the magazine publishing and radio industries, having got his first break by mailing a cartoon resume of his life to prospective employers. Bruce's passion for improving work led to him creating the podcast “Eat Sleep Work Repeat” which became a number 1 smash in the UK (also hitting the business top 10 in the US).In this episode, Stew and Bruce talk about the pandemic’s impact on how we are managing the blurred lines between work and home, where social media fits into this brave new world, and how we can all keep our energy, enthusiasm, and creativity going in these difficult times.  Bruce shares some of his favorite hacks from among the 30 he offers in Eat Sleep Work Repeat for how to bring more joy to work.  Here’s an invitation, a challenge, for you to consider, after you’ve listened to this episode.  If your work involves online video meetings, try adding a few minutes to one of them, at the start, where you bring something human to the conversation -- a funny story, an unexpected encounter, anything that helps everyone feel a bit closer as people, more than just co-workers.  What do you discover?  Write to Stew Friedman to let him know, at [email protected], or connect with him on LinkedIn.  While you’re at it, share your thoughts with Stew on this episode and ideas for future shows.   Hosted on Acast.
