Hello from the studio. Here’s what we’ve been thinking about, making and reading this month.
What we learned
A year ago we tried four-day weeks every August. Output held steady, client satisfaction held steady, and the team came back in September with ideas instead of fatigue.
Rituals that stuck
Monday planning in thirty minutes, no internal meetings on Wednesdays and a Friday demo where everyone shows one thing they made.
Reading list
Three books and two essays the team passed around this summer, on craft, focus and saying no to good ideas.
Until next month — the Alphure team.
