Today, I am joined by my good friend John Briggs. He is the founder of InciteTax and the author of the 3.3 Rule—how to avoid burnout and improve employee retention. You can find the book on Amazon. We dive into John's book and his totally new way of thinking about productivity and work. We talk about being a leader, the history of the 40-hour work week, how the research supports giving your team breaks, the importance of taking a break and not "doing" anything during that break, sprinters, joggers and zen masters, how taking good care of your employees and implementing the 3.3 rule can feel very vulnerable as a business owner, but how science shows it's better for everyone. We also talk about the amazing results of deep listening and I know you're going to love hearing what John has to share.
John Briggs is known for going against the Big 4 Accounting firms with his “new workday normal” Rockstar business culture and jaw-dropping revenue increases of 492%! But how did he do it? Many people have been dying to know John’s secrets.
Fear not, because he recently composed all his stellar business advice, from epic failures to his greatest successes, into his new book, The 3.3 Rule - A New Workday Normal. Through his 12+ years of Entrepreneurship, he has learned that achieving a highly profitable business can be overwhelming, particularly with all the barriers and unknowns that new business owners are forced to deal with. Entrepreneurs can quickly become stressed and, often, sadly, give up on the mission that they set out for because of burnout.
In much the same way that the body needs blood to survive, our economy needs small businesses, the lifeblood of the economy, to stay healthy and to grow more resilient. John Briggs is a man on a mission! A mission to give entrepreneurs a new workday standard so they avoid burnout and stay in business. The 3.3 Rule book showcases how to make more by working less.
He “walks the walk” by battling against the traditional CPA culture of “overwork, underpaid, pay your dues and suffer while you’re at it” mentality by providing his team with this same new workday normal, even during busy tax season!
