The Year Without Pants: Wordpress.com and the Future of Work Hardcover - 2013 - 1st Edition
by Scott Berkun
From the rear cover
"The Year Without Pants is one the most original and important books about what work is really like, and what it takes to do it well, that has ever been written."
--Robert Sutton, professor, Stanford University, and author, New York Times bestsellers The No Asshole Rule and Good Boss, Bad Boss
"The underlying concept--an 'expert' putting himself on the line as an employee-- is just fantastic. And then the book gets better from there! I wish I had the balls to do this."
--GUY KAWASAKI, author, APE: Author, Publisher, Entrepreneur, and former chief evangelist, Apple
"If you want to think differently about entrepreneurship, management, or life in general, read this book."
--Tim Ferriss, author, New York Times bestseller The 4-Hour Workweek
"With humor and heart, Scott has written a letter from the future about a new kind of workplace that wasn't possible before the internet. His insights will make you laugh, think, and ask all the right questions about your own company's culture."
--Gina Trapani, founding editor, Lifehacker
"The future of work is distributed. Automattic wrote the script. Time for rest of us to read it."
--Om Malik, founder, GigaOM
"Some say the world of work is changing, but they're wrong. The world has already changed! Read The Year Without Pants to catch up."
--Chris Guillebeau, author, New York Times bestseller The $100 Startup
"You'll be surprised, shocked, delighted, thrilled, and inspired by how WordPress.com gets work done. I was!"
--Joe Belfiore, corporate vice president, Microsoft
"Most talk of the future of work is just speculation, but Berkun has actually worked there. The Year Without Pants is a brilliant, honest, and funny insider's story of life at a great company."
--Eric Ries, author, New York Times bestseller The Lean Startup
