The practical guide to go from "drowning in work" to freeing up an extra business day per week for everyone on your team
“There just aren’t enough hours in the day to get everything done!” Sound familiar? Forget the old concepts of time management and the hustle culture of working until you burn out. You and your entire team can get more done, in far fewer hours, with the right blueprint. Come Up for Air is that blueprint.
Through years of building a leading efficiency consulting business, Nick Sonnenberg has discovered the primary reason why so many teams are overwhelmed. It's not because they don’t have enough time, managers expect too much of their employees, or there aren’t enough people. The problem is that everyone is drowning in unnecessary work and inefficiencies that prevent them from focusing on the work that actually drives results.
In Come Up for Air, you’ll discover the CPR® Business Efficiency Framework, a proven system for leaders, managers, and teams to maximize their performance and reduce overwhelm by using the right tools in the right way, at the right time. The end result? More output, less stress, happier employees, and the potential to gain an extra full day per week in productivity to use however you’d like.
You’ll learn the proven empirical strategies from someone who not only turned his company around when it was on the verge of bankruptcy, but has also helped thousands of organizations around the world become more efficient and leverage the right systems and tools for explosive growth. Come Up for Air is the employee manual you never received.
Turn to Come Up for Air to:
- Gain an extra full day per week in productivity for everyone on your team.
- Reduce stress and burnout by creating a more stable work environment.
- Eliminate the 58% of employee time per day spent on “work about work” instead of being productive.
- Improve company culture by empowering your team to spend their time on work that matters.
- Save an average of two hours per week just by optimizing email with the R.A.D. System.
- Stop wasting time on the “Scavenger Hunt” of trying to find where information is stored.
- Increase employee happiness, satisfaction, trust, and retention by making work easier.
- Stop wasting time in meetings with four proven techniques.
A quiz and accompanying figures are included in the audiobook companion PDF download.

Story
Carl Zimmer investigates one of the biggest questions of all: What is life? The answer seems obvious until you try to seriously answer it. Is the apple sitting on your kitchen counter alive, or is only the apple tree it came from deserving of the word? If we can’t answer that question here on Earth, how will we know when and if we discover alien life on other worlds? The question hangs over some of society’s most charged conflicts - whether a fertilized egg is a living person, for example, and when we ought to declare a person legally dead.
