Synopsis
This book investigates the crucial question of how meaningful work can be fostered and sustained throughout a range of work environments., Work is one of the fundamental experiences of human life. Yet very few of us are lucky enough to find truly fulfilling jobs. In recent decades, as businesses have come to understand the crucial link between happiness and productivity, researchers have focused increasingly on factors such as the nature of the work itself, how well it is suited to the worker, and the ways in which employees can derive meaning and purpose from their work. In this groundbreaking book, editors Bryan J. Dik, Zinta S. Byrne, and Michael F. Steger have brought together experts in counseling and vocational psychology, industrial and organizational psychology, and the fields of executive coaching and management to investigate how meaningful work can be fostered and sustained throughout a wide range of work environments. Theoretically grounded yet filled with practical strategies for the workplace, this book will be an important resource for academics, executive consultants, career counselors, human resource professionals, and organizational leaders alike., Work is one of the fundamental experiences of human life.

    Stellar price for the book set! Small issues with 2 of the books spines/binding that wasn’t listed in the description (may have gone unnoticed) but still an exceptional price even with those issues! Fast responses during negotiations and it was literally shipped the next day after purchase! Overall 10/10 would recommend buying from this seller!
