Working on purpose : how to find happiness at work
Scott, Ellen2025
Books
Quiet quitting, resenteeism, pointless meetings, toxic bosses, the anti-work movement, the death of the dream job, the death of the career. We're in a moment where our relationship with work is seriously negative. The dream of work-life balance feels further out of reach than ever. We're recovering from the damage wrought by the overworking ideals promoted by the leaning in, hustle culture, girl boss era, & desperately trying to claw back some sense of control. But each work trend, each attempt to restore the balance, is coming at the problem all wrong. As a result, many of us teeter between working too hard or hardly working, burnout or boreout, productivity paranoia & total apathy. According to Gallup data, Gen Z are the most disengaged group at work. Ask a 20-something for their perfect job & they're more than likely to respond that they don't dream of labour. This book will help to reduce the misery of work.
