Brad Feld, founder of VC firm Foundry Group, started scheduling regular vacations after his wife, Amy Batchelor, almost dumped him for working during an entire weekend trip. They now have one-week vacations each quarter -- known as their "Qx vacation." The ground rules? He unplugs completely, giving her his smartphone. "She gives it back the following week," he says. Colleagues work around it, and Feld stays married.
5.定期安排假期
布拉德•菲尔德是风险投资公司Foundry集团的创始人,有一次周末旅行时,他全程只顾工作,他的妻子艾米•巴切勒差点儿和他闹离婚。现在,他们每个季度都会安排为期一周的假期,他们称之为“季度假期”。而作为“季度假期”基本规则,他必须把智能手机交给妻子,并与工作完全隔离。他说道:“她会在下一周把手机还给我。”现在,他的同事也纷纷效仿,而菲尔德则与妻子和好如初。
