The art of Danish living : how the world's happiest people find joy at work / Meik Wiking.
"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"-arbejdsgl℗æde. 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"-- Provided by publisher.
