Book Details:

The Work Happiness Method: Master the 8 Skills to Career Fulfillment is being published by Hachette Go in March 2024. It examines the root of why so many of us are miserable at work. According to positive psychology practitioner and workplace happiness expert Stella Grizont, the problem is not always our boss, clients, or job—it’s us. While bad bosses and toxic workplaces can certainly contribute to disengagement and downright misery at work, Grizont argues that we have the responsibility to help ourselves thrive by mastering our inner skills—things like managing our mind and mood; dealing with uncertainty; and guiding ourselves back to center when triggered into a defensive or hopeless state. With its step-by-step guidance, practical tools, and relatable stories readers are empowered to flourish – regardless of where they work or with whom.
