Finding Meaning at Work:
An Engaged Approach to Employee Development
In his book A Whole New Mind, Daniel Pink named meaning as one of the six senses that will
"increasingly guide our lives and shape our world" as we move into the future. For too many years, we have assumed that a paycheck is enough of an incentive for the typical worker to show up each day and give his best to the organization. As corporations worldwide strive to improve engagement levels among their employees, surveys will likely report improvement in many areas including improved relationships at work, a clearer understanding of the organizational goals and more flexible job conditions. However, this book invites you to reimagine your approach to employee development and consider asking your direct reports one important question: "How will you find meaning in your work today?"
