"I'm working harder than I ever have, and I don't know if it's
worth it anymore." If you're a manager or leader in today's
high-speed, high-stress economy, these words have probably run
through your mind, maybe more than once. Many people in management
positions are feeling fed up, burned out, and unhappy at work: the
constant pressure and stress, the unending changes, the
politics...
People are feeling they can't give much more, and their
performance is suffering.But it's work, after all, right? Should we
even expect to be fulfilled and happy at work? Annie McKee answers
with a definitive yes. She makes the most compelling case yet that
happiness--and the full engagement that comes with it--is more
important than ever in today's workplace. Based on extensive
research and decades of experience with leaders, this book sheds
new light on the powerful relationship of happiness to individual,
team, and organizational success.McKee's research reveals that
there are three essential elements that people must have in order
to be happy at work:
A sense of purpose and the chance to
contribute to something bigger than themselves;A vision that is
powerful and personal, creating a real sense of hope; andResonant,
friendly relationshipsThe book is organized around these essential
elements and shows how leaders can create and sustain them in the
face of ongoing stress and pressure, as well as how to create a
healthy, positive climate for their teams and other groups within
their companies.
How to Be Happy at Work will transform and enrich
our understanding of what it means to be happy at work, and it will
provide clear, practical advice and instruction for how to achieve
this.
