Wednesday is the new weekend: why a four-day week is so beneficial | Rebecca Ivey | TEDxBaselWomen

How can we find the time and the energy to thrive in work, life and learning? The history of the five-day workweek offers surprising insights that challenge our assumptions about when and how we work. Hear about unexpected champions who boldly decided to give more paid free time back to workers, and dare to imagine what you could accomplish if you had one extra paid day off, every week. Rebecca is a behavioural scientist and a director at the World Economic Forum. She has spent over 10 years promoting new ideas and advocating for change in our economic systems. She is passionate about understanding the role of history and culture in how we live and work today and experimenting with three questions: How does change happen? How do leaders learn? And, how can we build a future together that people are included in and excited about, not afraid of? This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at https://www.ted.com/tedx
