#007: The Assault on Work with Dr. Tracy Brower

One commonly shared idea in the work force is the idea that the less work one has to do, the better. Although true in some cases, Dr. Tracy Brower, author of The Secrets to Happiness At Work, challenges this notion––pointing out pervasive trends such as “quiet quitting” and increased disengagement at work.  According to Brower the key is not to work less; the key is to find joy in your work. Work presents some of the greatest opportunities for growth, connection, and happiness. Join this conversation with Dr. Brower and Benj Miller as they discuss the “assault” on work, the greatest potentials for the future of work, and the vital importance of connection and community. This episode is sponsored by The 261.  Start your day with clarity! As leaders, we have countless things on our mind: things we need to do, things we’re not doing, problems we need to solve, new exciting ideas––all jotted down in that worn out mental notebook we keep in our heads.  But, sometimes leaders and entrepreneurs simply need to step away from the mental clutter––sometimes we don’t need the notebook, we just need a sticky note––a simple reminder along the way to help us gain clarity and control of our business.  That’s why we created a new FREE resource called The 261. As you may know, there are 261 work days in the calendar year. So, we have mapped out the entire year with daily micro thoughts and micro actions––sticky notes––to help keep the ball moving forward in your personal life as a leader and for the sake of your business. If you want to start your day with clarity and receive a short, helpful thought to jumpstart your leadership, please go to The261.com and sign up!
