Book Jacket of The Week: The Productivity Project
Our Book Jacket of The Week is Chris Bailey’s The Productivity Project – out this week in paperback from Crown Business! We love the catchy but soothing color scheme, as well as the clear prints that speak with utmost confidence. Most importantly, we think it matches perfectly to the author’s penchant for clarity. However, while we’re vouching for the cover, we think you should dive into what’s inside for an even more rewarding and educational experience! Check out what others have to say on THE PRODUCTIVITY PROJECT, and be sure to follow the author @ALOProductivity.
