“
Meet Prashant, a software developer from India, he is struggling with work/life balance.
I need to get up early no matter what. Sometimes I work late night to finish some work and still end up getting up early. I find I have less and less time to
deal with other things in my life since the job is taking up most of my time and energy.

ROWE(Results Only Work Environment)
Where employees are evaluated on their results, rather than the amount of time that they spend sitting at their desks.

The basic concept is
If you want to leave at 2pm and go watch your kids' school play,
you canIf you're feeling stressed and unproductive,
and want to go cycling instead of working on a Tuesday,
go for it!If you want to work from home every day,
go ahead!
All that matters is that the work gets done.

Prashant suggested this idea to his boss, to his surprise, his boss agreed and even assigned him to lead this project.

Prashant is happy.
everyone is happy.
1 months later, their company changed completely, employee engagement goes up strongly, but surprisingly so does productivity. They can finish work as soon as possible, sometimes in the office, sometimes at home, they have enough time to do other things: sleep, exercise, shopping, play with the kids, etc……

You can suggest the ROWE in your company, or you can always find a place where they’re using this,
(Valve is a wonderful example)
or you just quit and become a freelancer.
