Overview

A beautiful, research-backed guide with illustrations, photography and inspiration for how to live and work like the happiest people in the world It is well known that Denmark is one of the happiest nations in the world, and this is true in the workplace, too. Almost two thirds of Danes report a high level of job satisfaction and 58% would carry on working even if they no longer needed to. They even have a word that means 'happiness at work' - arbejdsgl de - and yet, the rest of the world are struggling with a burnout epidemic, so where are we going wrong? Based on a new study from The Happiness Research Institute in Copenhagen, Meik reveals exactly that in his most valuable book to date. Beautifully illustrated and with chapters on purpose, trust, success and freedom, Meik suggests a more holistic approach to life and work complete with simple tips, such as- creating a 'smile file' of moments where you've made a difference, or 'job-crafting' by finding the tasks that bring you the most joy and amplifying them in your daily routine. Meik's latest masterpiece provides the inspiration and simple tools we all need to reduce stress, increase our sense of purpose, and live the Danish way.
