Work Less, Earn the Same

by David Meyer

New Zealand entrepreneur Andrew Barnes argues passionately for greater employee flexibility to save society, economies and the planet. 

New Zealand entrepreneur Andrew Barnes has a mission, and he performs that mission using his own resources. Barnes fervently believes in maximum productivity and in worker well-being. This is a rare set of beliefs for the leader of a trust company.

Barnes’ actions are even more rare, though he would like to see them become standard practice worldwide. He writes, “A groundswell is building in favor of the traditional rights of workers.”
