Overview

A better work life balance should be a priority for everyone from new starter to senior executive. We only live once, and knowing how to balance work demands with life outside work is critical - not just for our own well-being and those dear to us, but also for our effectiveness at work. Happy at Work? explores the Psychology of work and leisure, what makes us happy, how we can easily get trapped in roles which are bad for our health, and how to make the best decisions to get the work life balance we need. Andy Gibb is a Chartered Psychologist, Associate Fellow of the British Psychological Society, and held senior roles in Royal Dutch Shell, EY and Man Group. He took a sabbatical to explore ways to achieve a better work life balance, while pursuing his own ambition to sail around the world and further, taking 7 years, then returned to work to test how practical this is after a long absence. Happy at Work? combines the psychology of happiness and work life balance decisions, with practical extracts from real life experience. It is essential reading for anyone considering how to get a better work life balance and whether to take a short break, extended time off, sabbaticals, change roles, work part time or retire.
