The Search for Work Happiness: Helping leaders keep themselves and their people happy and mentally healthy

Are you a leader—owner, manager, mentor—in business (or want to be one) and you really want to make a major impact on those around you? Or maybe you know a good-hearted leader who wants to elevate their leadership game and could use a gift of guidance?

This book offers non-traditional approaches to reducing overwork and burnout, rethinking the pitch process, eliminating anxiety from timesheets, embracing employee side gigs, treating vendors like humans, going all-in on transparency and trust, and many other methods to leading and managing that are focused on employee well-being, mental health, and true work life balance.

The traditional business model prioritizes profit and productivity. The mental health of the folks who do the work? It’s simply collateral damage. But there’s a better way. In this easy-to-listen to book, creative entrepreneur David Lubofsky shares his keys to the novel concept of prioritizing happiness above all else at work. Lubofsky’s personal stories and thoughtful examples inspire readers to find their own work happiness, while creating it for those around them.

This book is your guide in the search for work happiness, with 12 compact chapters chock full of:

• Untraditional ways managers and mentors can help themselves, and their teams, find happiness and well-being in the “workplace” • Perspectives that can help any professional grow both as a leader and as a human • Engaging stories and examples supported by intricate art pieces that will leave you smiling, laughing, and—let’s be honest—probably shaking your head

Tiny changes make a big impact over time. Creating workplace change isn’t an all-or-nothing endeavor. But readers can guarantee they’ll find a tip, trick, or tweak in the way they approach work that will get them one step closer in the search for work happiness.
