The Four-Day Workweek Experiment That Actually Worked

Lucas and Luna dig into a specific four-day workweek trial run by a mid-sized UK marketing agency in 2024. They break down the actual schedule change, the productivity metrics that improved, and the unexpected downside: Thursday burnout. Lucas shares data from the 100-80-100 model — 100% pay, 80% time, 100% output — and why it worked for this team but might not for every industry. Luna challenges whether the model is sustainable for client-facing roles. The episode ends with a concrete takeaway: the Friday off only works if you protect Wednesday and Thursday from overflow. #FourDayWorkweek #WorkLifeBalance #Productivity #RemoteWork #HybridWork #BurnoutPrevention #10080100Model #MarketingAgency #UKBusiness #EmployeeWellbeing #Careers #BusinessPodcast #FexingoBusiness #WorkCulture #TimeManagement #Boundaries #WorkSmarter #JobSatisfaction Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
