By emphasizing purpose, hope, and friendships they can also ensure a healthy, positive climate for their teams and throughout the organization.How to Be Happy at Work deepens our understanding of what it means to be truly fulfilled and effective at work and provides clear, practical advice and instruction for how to get there--no matter what job you have.
