Cal Newport on Doing Collaborative Deep Work, Digital Minimalism  and Solitude

Cal Newport talks about doing good work and living a rewarding life, and the role that technology plays in both.

Cal Newport is an Associate Professor of Computer Science at Georgetown University, and the author most recently of Deep Work, a book which argues that focus is the new I.Q. in the modern workplace, and So Good They Can’t Ignore You, a book which debunks the long-held belief that “follow your passion” is good advice.

In addition to studying the theoretical foundations of our digital age as a professor, Newport also writes about the impact of these technologies on the world of work.
