Find Joy in Any Job: Why Am I Unhappy at Work?

There’s been much talk about the Great Resignation and what’s
driving it. The pandemic has exacerbated a long-term problem: many
of us struggle to find any pleasure in our work. But quitting isn’t
the only the solution. Often, it’s not feasible. In this special
series from HBR, we look at a different path: figuring out what you
really love and crafting your current role around that. In this
episode, we dig into the data showing why people feel so disengaged
and what they feel is missing from their work. IdeaCast co-host
Alison Beard speaks with Marcus Buckingham, head of research on
people and performance at the ADP Research Institute and author of
the new book Love + Work.
