Great At Work examines what it takes to be a top performer and gives practical advice to achieve significant results at work while maintaining an excellent work-life balance.

In his book, management theorist, motivational speaker, and author Morten Hansen asks — why do some individuals perform better than others?

Hansen recruited a team and launched one of the biggest research projects on individual performance at work. They collected tons of data about how people work and what results they get, then analyzed it statistically.

The group found that several 'work smart' practices account for high performance at work.

In Great At Work: How Top Performers Work Less and Achieve More, Hansen explains these principles, with examples from the lives of the 5,000 people that he and his team analyzed.
