We're raised to believe that we will have jobs and work. Our school
system is designed in part to educate us so we can find a good job
afterwards. Yet no-one ever tells you how to work. No one ever sits
you down and tells you how to be at the center of your work, how to get
the most out of your role and how to be happy, healthy, safe and engaged
in the workplace. Lacking this knowledge, work often veers off and feels
wrong. Panicking, we change and start again somewhere else, thinking
'it's not me, it's the job'. And then the process begins again.
In a post-COVID19 world where redundancies are high, and job
opportunities are low, never has it been so essential to learn how to be
happy and healthy at work. Literature advocating that you 'love it or
leave it' is not applicable or helpful in a squeezed job-market. Not
many have the privilege of being able to up and leave their job, and
even if you do there is no guarantee of happiness if you don't know the
rules or understand how to work well and be well at work.
Unless you do the work, you can change jobs as often as you like but
still never find the elusive happiness you seek. Jumping from job to job
will not provide you with the answers, unless you can first rework
yourself and shed yourself of the burden of inherited cultures, past
beliefs and historical mistakes.
Reworked utilizes neuroscience, evidence-based psychology and two
decades of working in health and wellbeing to teach you how to be happy,
healthy, safe and engaged at work. These are the four key pillars which
run throughout the book. A book to empower, inspire and ignite a passion
for happiness at work, Reworked will teach you everything you need to
rethink, reimagine and reinvent yourself, as you always wanted to be, in
the workplace.
