Insightful and useful
What an outstanding book!
Bruce Daisley's passion for making everyone's working lives better (more enjoyable, more effective, more... relevant) is inspirational. It feels a little bit like he's handed us all a cheat sheet as he has basically done all the hard work for us, distilling down days, weeks, months (years?) worth of conversation and research into something that is easy to digest and easy to implement.

Usefil tips to love your job!
I came across Bruce Daisley on Emma Gannon's Ctrl Alt Delete podcast and was eager to hear more, so I purchased this is Audiobook. This was a great decision, as Bruce reads with both clarity and enthusiasm - I just wished I had pen and made some notes. We spend so much of our waking lives at work, we might as well in enjoy it. Bruce shows us not only how to enjoy what we do, but to love it!

A must read for anyone with people responsibility or who are interested in a happy life!
Daisley’s grasp of what is important in life is phenomenal. He weaves together an eclectic mix of academic research, worker perspectives and examples from top executives to create a compelling picture of what is possible. His forthright musings are magnetic and delivered in a light-hearted manner that makes this difficult to stop listening. Book ordered for future reference...Masterpiece!

An inspirational piece of work
A thoroughly enjoyable and inspirational piece of writing. Not bloated or repetitive like so many but a condensed piece of wisdom with a series of observations, best practices and learnings. If anything this work should be reworked for a broader audience.

A must read
Tons of great tips in this wonderful book. It feels more like a conversation than a lecture, and you take away much more because of it. A joy.
