Stop Looking for the Perfect Job

One of the first things we learn about people is what they do for a
living. But the link between work and identify has moved far beyond
that, especially in certain industries, geographies, and cultures.
Many of us put everything we have into our jobs, expecting our
careers to fulfill us. Author Simone Stolzoff argues for a
different approach. He wants us to find work that keeps us engaged
and gives us the security we need, while still allowing us to
define ourselves in other ways. Drawing on research and real-life
stories, he explains what it means to have a "good enough" job, and
why this shift in thinking could be good not just for individuals
but also for teams and organizations. Stolzoff is the author of The
Good Enough Job: Reclaiming Life from Work.
