"We spend more time working than doing anything else in life. It's not right that the experience of work should be so demotivating and dehumanizing." So says Laszlo Bock, head of People Operations at the company that transformed how the world interacts with knowledge. This insight is the heart of WORK RULES!, a compelling and surprisingly playful manifesto with the potential to change how we work and live.
Drawing on the latest research in behavioral economics and with a profound grasp of human psychology, Bock also provides teaching examples from a range of industries–including companies that are household names but hideous places to work, and little-known companies that achieve spectacular results by valuing and listening to their employees. Bock takes us inside one of history's most explosively successful businesses to reveal why Google is consistently rated one of the best places to work in the world, distilling 15 years of intensive worker R&D into delightfully counterintuitive principles that are easy to put into action, whether you're a team of one or a team of thousands.
Cleaving the knot of conventional management, some lessons from WORK RULES! include:
Take away managers' power over employees
Learn from your best employees–and your worst
Only hire people who are smarter than you are, no matter how long it takes to find them
Pay unfairly (it's more fair!)
Don't trust your gut: use data to predict and shape the future
Default to open: be transparent, and welcome feedback
If you're comfortable with the amount of freedom you've given your employees, you haven't gone far enough
WORK RULES! shows how to strike a balance between creativity and structure, leading to success you can measure in quality of life as well as market share. Read it to build a better company from within rather than from above; read it to reawaken your joy in what you do.

Epigraph
Preface: A Guidance Counselor’s Nightmare
Building the perfect Google resume, in retrospect
Why Google’s Rules Will Work for You
The surprising (and surprisingly successful) places that work just as we do
1. Becoming a Founder
Just as Larry and Sergey laid the foundation for how Google treats its people, you can lay the foundation for how your team works and lives
2. “Culture Eats Strategy for Breakfast”
If you give people freedom, they will amaze you
3. Lake Wobegon, Where All the New Hires Are Above Average
Why hiring is the single most important people activity in any organization
4. Searching for the Best
The evolution of Google’s “self-replicating talent machine”
5. Don’t Trust Your Gut
Why our instincts keep us from being good interviewers, and what you can do to hire better
6. Let the Inmates Run the Asylum
Take power from your managers and trust your people to run things
7. Why Everyone Hates Performance Management, and What We Decided to Do About It
Improve performance by focusing on personal growth instead of ratings and rewards
8. The Two Tails
The biggest opportunities lie in your absolute worst and best employees
9. Building a Learning Institution
Your best teachers already work for you.… Let them teach!
10. Pay Unfairly
Why it’s okay to pay two people in the same job completely different amounts
11. The Best Things in Life Are Free (or Almost Free)
Most of Google’s people programs can be duplicated by anyone
12. Nudge… a Lot
Small signals can cause large changes in behavior. How one email can improve productivity by 25 percent

评论 ······
就像民主一样，explicit的制度是很容易抄袭的，implicit的规范是很难模仿的。因此，本书第一章就是讲文化，没有文化就只能南橘北枳。
They recommended 3 management books to me, 2 of them from Google, Work Rules! and Sprint. I'd like to take a look.
to be open or closed, healthy or ill, happy or sad。
看完发现主要是写给HR和管理者的书，洋洋洒洒废话很多四百多页。里面大部分心理学实验在其他书中都读到过类似的概念。就是吹嘘大google多么开放多么人性化多么讲理你们也可以学你们公司也能做到。诸如此类。前阵子thoughtworks给公司做完咨询，现在所有team处于完全chaos自管理状态，一个发现：管人的manager真不是个好活，管项目本质上还是要管人，也真是呵呵呵。
