"""The Reset is a provocative guide to how we fit into an

ecosystem' - The Financial Times

Being busy isn't an Identity

Perks aren't office Culture

Profit isn't all we want from Business

Loneliness shouldn't happen in a Community

Inequality isn't inevitable in a City

We can all shape Society

From the award-winning author and Financial Times columnist

Elizabeth Uviebinene, a fundamental rethink of how we work and live.

Because if we're going to really benefit from the radical shift of 2020, we

have to rethink how we fit into an ecosystem. Elizabeth started with a

simple desire to explore our relationship with work, and how it was

impacting our lives. It became clear if we want to reset how we work as

individuals, we're going to need to reset the work culture we exist in, the

businesses we work for, the communities we're a part of, the cities we live

in and the society we can shape.

We can't just rethink one strand of

society; we need to rethink everything together.

It's time for

a Reset.

The Reset is a short, digestible book for people who want to work better,

and live better. Elizabeth addresses our urge to work differently, to work

in a way that suits more parts of our lives. It's optimistic, positive and

provocative, offering fresh perspectives on the way we live now, and a

punchy idea for how we might live in the future. So what's possible now

that would have seemed impossible before?

Some people seek purpose in work. Others see

work as a tool to live with purpose outside of work. Where do you sit on

this scale?

'An exciting, refreshing, curious read which

addresses not just the future of work but how to fundamentally rethink the

way we live' -EMMA

GANNON, author of The Sunday Times bestseller The

Multi-Hyphen Method

""At a time when many of us are reconsidering our work/life balance

in the long-term, it's an illuminating read."" - Cosmopolitan

""Uviebinene's passion about resetting how

we live and work is infectious and eye-opening."" - Marie Claire

""This book made me stop and rethink my relationship with work.

Elizabeth challenges us all to create a new social contract with trust,

purpose and community at its heart. Where we work by design and not by

default and in doing so, create a world of work that is more balanced,

inclusive and better for everyone."
