“Out of every lesson with the 4-day work week, communication is key.”

  • Ryan-Mae McAvoy

Dreaming of a 3-day weekend, every week? Already living the dream? You’ll be intrigued by this episode where my guest pulls back the curtain on how her organization has implemented a 4-day work week, and the learnings along the way.

My guest is Ryan-Mae McAvoy. Ryan-Mae considers herself a nontraditional "people person" and has worked in the people space from Startups to Ski Areas. She is well-versed in multi-functional operations for lean people teams. Her strategic focus includes work/life balance, a healthy culture for everyone's mental well-being, and creating a company people actually want to work for. When not being a “People Person,” she lives her best "old lady life" knitting, reading, wine tasting, and hanging with her husband and cats in the Bay Area of California.

In this episode of Talent Management Truths, you’ll discover:

🍏 Practical insights into ways to support a 4-day work week

🍏 How to define and manage true emergencies

🍏 The power of iteration in managing growing pains
