QUIET WORKS: MAKING SILENCE THE SECRET INGREDIENT OF THE WORKDAY

QUIET WORKS: AN OVERVIEW


WE LIVE—AND WORK—IN A WORLD OF NONSTOP NOISE. IT’S TIME TO REIMAGINE HOW WE WORK
AND MAKE SILENCE THE SECRET INGREDIENT.

From the time we wake up, our workday starts. We’re on our smartphones, texting
and emailing, scrolling news feeds, jumping on video conference calls. It’s a
24/7 hamster wheel.

Work culture—at the office, hybrid, or remote—is defined by too much information
and constant collaboration. There’s no time or place for thinking alone.

In Quiet Works, author Joseph McCormack proposes a simple, practical, and useful
way to work more strategically and intentionally. You will learn to:

 * Make appointments for quiet, and not run from it
 * Set boundaries to alert others not to disturb or distract you
 * Balance time spent alone in quiet with time together collaborating
 * Design workspaces that are conducive to quiet
 * Use tools and practices that are realistic and rewarding

Quiet Works will help you become a stronger professional who is empowered and
energized to work in a better, smarter, and more productive way in today’s
competitive, noisy environment.

CHANGE THE CULTURE OF NOISE TO A CULTURE OF QUIET

Is a lack of quiet in the workplace an issue of time, environment, or culture?

We asked that question, and 60 percent of respondents said that “culture” was
the biggest problem, followed by “environment” (23 percent).

In the typical workplace, the greatest sources of noise are:

 * Meetings
 * Digital devices
 * Emails
 * Texting/instant messaging
 * Interruptions from coworkers/clients




ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Joe McCormack is the founder and presdient of The BRIEF Lab, and he’s passionate
about helping professionals gain focus and clarity in a world of too much
information, too much collaboration, and too much noise.

As an entrepreneur, marketing executive, and author, he is recognized for his
work in concise, strategic communication and leadership development.

Joe has written three books—a trilogy—that outline and promote the personal and
professional benefits of clear thinking and concise communication.

Brief: Make a Bigger Impact By Saying Less tackles the challenges of
inattention, interruptions, and impatience that every professional faces. It
sets the standard for concise communication.

Noise, Living and Leading When Nobody Can Focus addresses the devastating
effects on information overload, digital devices, and non-stop distractions, and
teaches managers and leaders how to help themselves and others sharpen their
focusing skills.

Quiet Works: Making Silence the Secret Ingredient of the Workday proposes a
simple, practical, useful way to work strategically and intentionally. It
teaches people how to make appointments for “quiet,” balance quiet time with
collaboration, and use quiet tools and practices that are realistic and
rewarding.

His podcast, Just Saying, helps professionals become effective and efficient
communicators in an age of information overload.

Before his entrepreneurial ventures, Joe served as Senior Vice President at
Ketchum, a top-five marketing agency in Chicago. He received a BA in English
Literature from Loyola University of Chicago where he graduated with honors. He
is fluent in Spanish and has broad international experience. Joe and his wife
Julie split their time between Southern Pines, North Carolina, and Chicago,
Illinois.
