‘The Art of Happiness at Work’
Hodder Mobius - 2003.
This book is probably the most spiritual approach to being happy at work on the market today. However, it is also a good practical mix of ideas for how to find happiness in any work and how to help yourself find the work that’s best for you. The emphasis seems to be on our inner and deeper selves and to allow our natural work to flow from who we are rather than looking for “ideal” work.

The Art of Happiness at Work

‘Love it don’t leave it’ - Beverley Kaye and Sharon Jordan-Evans.
Berett-Koehler - 2003
This is a ‘dip in’ kind of book stuffed with lots of practical ideas for making your life at work more enjoyable. It contains plenty of ideas for fixing environment and relationship issues as well as challenging our attitudes and behaviours at work. We found this book to be thought provoking in a practical way, and we love their collection of t-shirt quotes throughout.

NLP at Work: The Difference that Makes a Difference in Business

‘Passion at Work’ - Lawler Kang
Pearson – Prentice Hall - 2006
Graham writes – One of the most powerful books I have ever read. Passion at Work takes you way beyond the ‘Payslip’ mentality so you are aligned with who you truly are, and what you have to offer the world. The book supports you in examining and mastering the 5 P’s (Passion, Proficiencies, Priorities, Plan and Prove) and moves you from where you are now to where you would like to be.
