WHY I LOVED THE IDEA FLEXIBILITY BOOSTS QUALITY OF LIFE. SELF CHOSEN FLEXIBILITY! I LIVE IT MYSELF, WHY NOT MY COLLEAGUES?
![Page 8: Four-Day Workweek by Jan Eppers, owner of Frische Fische @ Service Innovation Labs, May 4th 2016](https://reader031.fdocuments.in/reader031/viewer/2022030315/58822d761a28ab52368b6573/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Home office, flexi-time, long lunch breaks, comfortable office chairs, free fruits & coffee, extra-long vacations are nice, but feel like a gift. 01
Who am I to define everyone‘s best working time? Let the people chose! 02 Yes, there are external considerations, but at
first we‘re an internal company. 03 No, there‘s no 5 days from 09 – 05 law. 04
We‘re all people who care how we spend our time. 05 Honestly, how productive are Friday afternoons? To close at
1pm on Fridays would benefit only me, short-sighted. 06
Vehicle to tie talents and to attract new high-potentials. 07 Self-concept, no temporary hipster stuff. 08 M

Are my colleagues really interested in a 4-days workweek? Which time models are favored? May all switch or just some colleagues? Continuous hopping between 4 and 5-days week possible? What happens in case of emergencies? How to survive steady 10-hours workdays? How can I evaluate the change?
INTERNAL QUESTIONS (HUGE VARIETY POSSIBLE) !
!?

How to communicate the changes to customers/partners? Who announces these changes? What to do if customers don‘t like it? How
? EXTERNAL QUESTIONS (HUGE VARIETY POSSIBLE ALSO)

� IF CRISES AND PEAKS ARE JUST NORMAL.
� IF YOU DEPEND ON FREE EXTRA-HOURS.
� IF YOU HAVE WALK-IN CUSTOMERS.
� IF YOU‘VE COLLEAGUES WITH YOUNG KIDS AND NO FAMILY SUPPORT.
NO OTHER EXCUSE!
NOT TO RECOMMEND FOR... !
