Alex Soojung-Kim Pang studies people, technologies, and the worlds they make. His book SHORTER explores the global movement to shorten working hours, and how companies in a variety of industries are moving to 4-day weeks or 6-hour days while improving productivity and profitability. Through his company Strategy+Rest, Alex speaks and works around the world with companies who want to apply these insights in 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. He is also the author of REST: WHY YOU GET MORE DONE WHEN YOU WORK LESS, and THE DISTRACTION ADDICTION.
