He teaches at the MIT Sloan School of Management. Episode Quotes:Is a billable hour system a bad idea?07:22: A billable hour system is an input system, and in a knowledge-based economy, the idea that counting the inputs is the way to look at it is just crazy because people shouldn't be congratulated for spending more hours on something if they have a bad result.08:56: The only way to get organizations off hours and into a results-oriented output system is to provide them with an alternative system of accountability.What increases job satisfaction and productivity?11:33: It's that flexibility and autonomy that increase job satisfaction and productivity. So, that's a long way of saying we've got to get off hours and inputs. We've got to move to outputs and results, and we've got to show managers and bosses that we can have a system of accountability that's based on results.Hybrid setups will always be the dominant way to work46:03: Hybrid will be important because certain work, certain teams, certain aspects of jobs are always going to be done better in person, where people get together, and others are not. And that's why the hybrid is going to be the dominant form.Show Links:Recommended Resources:Edward Johnson IIIGuest Profile:Faculty Profile at MIT Sloan School of ManagementProfessional Profile at Brookings InstituteProfessional Profile at Harvard Kennedy SchoolProfessional Profile at IFRS FoundationRobert Pozen's WebsiteRobert Pozen on LinkedInRobert Pozen on TwitterRobert Pozen on FacebookHis Work:Articles on Harvard Business ReviewArticles on CFO MagazineRemote, Inc.: How to Thrive at Work…Wherever You AreThe Fund Industry: How Your Money is Managed (Wiley Finance)Extreme Productivity: Boost Your Results, Reduce Your HoursToo Big to Save?
