Let's make work better

I wrote Work Rules! to tell the story of how we think about our people at Google, what we’ve been learning over the past 17 years, and what you can do to put people first and transform your organization. After the publication of the book, I was humbled by the outpouring of support and interest from people all around the world. Waiters, lawyers, taxi drivers, executives, and small business owners alike wrote to tell me that they found the book helpful, and were now trying out practices from the book, such as structured interviewing and peer recognition, in their organizations. But many of them also told me that they wanted more - more of the nitty gritty, the details, the programs and practices, so they could make change in their workplaces, too.

The re:Work website is our response to the community of people who want to make work better around the world. And we don’t want to just talk about Google, because we don’t have all the answers. There are a lot of organizations out there using data to make work better, so re:Work offers a collection of practices, research, and ideas from a variety of organizations and leaders.

• Use the guides to help you drive change in your organization, from mitigating unconscious bias to hiring the right people.
• Read the case studies to learn how other organizations, like JetBlue and Wegmans, are using data to solve people-related challenges.
• Hang out at the water cooler to learn what people are talking about - from the latest academic research to new management trends.

I hope you read some of the ideas and  try some of the tools. We’ll be adding content regularly, so join the conversation, sign up for updates, and share your feedback and ideas. And most importantly, tell the world how you’re using data to #makeworkbetter. We’re excited to hear from you.

Let’s make work better, together.
