Synopsis
A beautiful, research-backed guide on how to work like the happiest people in the world, the Danes
It is well known that the Danes have a fantastic work-life balance, that working late is discouraged, parental leave is split equally, and long summer holidays are the norm. They even have a word meaning "happiness at work"—arbejdsglæde. Meanwhile, the rest of the western world is struggling with a burn-out epidemic—but where are we going wrong? Based on a new study from the Happiness Research Institute, Meik Wiking reveals the main factors that build happiness at work—purpose, trust, relationships, balance, and more—to show how we can reduce stress, increase productivity, and find fulfillment, both in and out of work.
