The conventional wisdom on work holds that it's a grind and that happiness is mostly impossible--or it's just about making it from Monday to Friday with a minimum of effort or pain. But it's possible to create the conditions for happiness at work--and to find joy even with the inevitable ups and downs of work and life.
The Secrets to Happiness at Work by Tracy Brower, PhD sociologist and an expert in work-life and happiness, is both compelling and accessible as it brings together science and pragmatic recommendations for wellbeing, fulfillment, satisfaction and success.
The Secrets to Happiness at Work is perfectly timed. As the landscape of work changes, and as the world becomes more volatile, uncertain, complex and ambiguous, Brower is a reassuring and hopeful voice inspiring positive experiences.
The Secrets to Happiness at Work isn't your average book. It is concise, optimistic and energetic--a TED talk in book form. Including joy, purpose, culture, relationships, growth, success and choosing alternatives, it covers all the ways to create the conditions for happiness--in an accessible and inspiring read.
