According to Jessica Pryce-Jones, happiness at work is not some abstract idea but a practical reality with a clear impact on you and your workplace. This book reveals that the happier you are the more you'll achieve, yielding tangible benefits to you and your organization.
Sharing the results of her four-year research journey in simple, jargon-free language, Pryce-Jones exposes the secrets of being happy at work.* Focuses on what happiness really means in a work context and why it matters to individuals and organisations in both human and financial terms* Equips readers with the information, knowledge and skills to make the most of the nearly 100,000 hours that they'll spend at work over a lifetime* Demystifies psychological research through a fascinating array of anecdotes, case studies, and interviews from people in the trenches of the working world, including business world-leaders, politicians, particle physicists, and philosophers, sheep farmers, waitresses, journalists, teachers, and lawyers, to name just a few
