After-Hours Emails Are Quietly Ruining Work

from TrailMarkers By Expedition Money Hosted by TrailMarkers By Expedition Money

Your phone lights up at 10pm, and somehow Greg wants everyone to know he's still grinding. Peter digs into after-hours messaging, what the research says about respect, and why some countries made late work emails illegal. What you'll learn: - Why midnight emailers often signal status theater more than real productivity - What workplace research finds when leaders ping teams after hours - How after-hours contact changes power dynamics between managers and direct reports - Why countries like Germany and companies like Volkswagen limited late email push - The difference between a rare late send and a weekly pattern that becomes a billboard - A simple fix: schedule send, so late work does not become someone else's emergency Books and resources from Peter Waitzman: Amazing Money Stories (true tales of greed, generosity, success and luck): https://geni.us/R7ef Fast Debt Payoff Guide: https://geni.us/HeWdQi1 Rethink How You See Money: https://geni.us/YljOz9 Money Is Factscinating: https://geni.us/LckBTAX How I Make A Six Figure Income On YouTube: https://geni.us/UZ2bnyd Woodland Cents, gift books that teach kids money, ages 3 to 7: https://geni.us/0jq3 Employers and organizations: ask about evaluation copies and the Expedition Money financial wellness program: https://www.expedition.money Contact us: https://www.expedition.money/contact-us Watch the video version: https://youtu.be/NdnOgUznq8g Educational and entertainment purposes only.
