Description

Welcome to Work Better, the podcast where we think about work and ways to make it better. Is joy at work really possible? While putting “joy” and “work” in the same sentence may seem contradictory, it’s actually more achievable than you may think. That’s because joy is an emotion and reflects how we feel in the moment. Little things, incremental changes, can spark joy. And when we experience joy, it’s a signal we’re on the right track toward improving overall wellbeing and happiness. Recent findings from Steelcase global research suggest that employees around the world need more feel-good moments at work. Leaders rank employee wellbeing as their top priority, but people aren’t feeling it — at least not yet. The latest data is clear: Leaders can help change the trajectory by understanding where employees are struggling and making meaningful changes that will actually help improve their happiness and wellbeing at work. This season on Work Better, we’re sharing ideas about how to find, create and design moments of joy at work. So help us spread the joy by sharing an episode with a friend or a colleague. Work Better is brought to you by Steelcase, a global design and thought leader in the world of work. We help people do their best work by creating places that work better. Stay-up-to-date on design, insights and research to help people work better at steelcase.com/subscribe .
