How many people do you know that are happy at work? As in genuinely happy?

We’ll wait…

You’ve seen the data and heard the advice — happy employees are more productive, better engagement equals better retention, and culture eats strategy for breakfast. You know the theories. But translating these ideas into action can feel overwhelming.

Does that ring a bell? If so, this book was written for you. It’s for the people leaders who want to do things differently — who dream of creating workplaces where both individuals and businesses can thrive. After 20 years of working in the corporate world, Aoife O’Brien is on a mission to help people and teams to become happy at work.

Drawing on her experience, her research, and insight from her award-winning podcast, Happier At Work, Aoife sets out a deceptively simple, yet powerful, model for building genuine, lasting, and inclusive happiness at work, to allow your talent not just to survive, but to thrive. You don’t need endless budgets, perfect conditions, or a complete overhaul to make a meaningful difference. You need psychological safety, three pillars, and a leadership style which aligns your efforts with your values.

And that’s exactly what this book will provide. Let’s get started.
