A practical look at how positive psychology can transform performance at work, essential for anyone looking to both grow in their professional career and improve their well-being. It is equally appropriate for employees or for managers and leaders looking to increase performance in their teams and departments.
Well-being at work should be more than just helping people feel okay. Positive psychology enables people to be more than okay and actually thrive at work. This book describes highly practical ideas and techniques that can be applied in the workplace at individual, team and organisational levels to increase positivity, boost engagement, develop strong working relationships, build purpose, enable a sense of accomplishment and grow resilience. It is packed with tools and tips to make a difference to your career, teams, organisations and daily working life, and demonstrates how ideas from positive psychology can help transform mindsets and drive the dual aims of performance and positivity.
This book is an essential read for anyone looking to grow in their professional career while also improving their well-being and happiness, and for leaders who want to enable high performance at work but also want their teams to thrive and be happy.
