Fika Time

A little pause, a lot of happiness

Hello there,

Coffee breaks and four-day workweeks? Yes, please! This newsletter is all about innovative approaches to work. We're sharing the secrets of Fika and exploring Iceland's game-changing experiment.

Dive in for some serious inspiration!

🌚 Want Happier Teams? Try Fika

Want happier, more productive teams? The Swedes have a secret weapon: fika! It's more than just a coffee break – it's a daily ritual where teams pause for coffee, snacks, and genuine conversation. Think of it as a workplace superpower!

Taking time to connect helps everyone recharge, sparks new ideas, and builds stronger team bonds. Science shows that regular breaks boost productivity and well-being, so bringing a little fika magic to your team could be a game-changer. More coffee, better collaboration, and greater success – what's not to love? 🚀 

📃While the Rest of Us Grind, Iceland Chills

Guess what? Iceland tried something pretty cool: a four-day workweek. And it was a massive success! Between 2015 and 2019, they experimented with shorter hours, and it turns out people got just as much done – sometimes even more!

This has got everyone talking. Could we all be happier and more productive working less? Countries like Australia are even thinking about giving it a shot. Iceland's experiment definitely makes a four-day workweek seem like a real possibility for the future.
