The Pursuit of Happiness at Work: Come Discover Your 5 C’s
SESSION INFO
Tuesday, January 7, 2020
2:15 PM - 3:45 PM
Session Type: Workshop
Happiness in the workplace results in a better working environment for all -- for you, your co-workers, and even for those under your supervision. When you feel happy at work, you will be more efficient, more productive and perform at your best. The presence of happiness will entice others to want to be engaged in the successfulness of the agency. Ultimately, choosing to be happy is fairly straight forward and the entire workplace will benefit. Don’t you want to find happiness at work? Often we think something is “out there” (a raise, a new love, or some change in circumstance) that would do the trick if we just had it. And when things don’t work out, we sometimes find ourselves turning down the dials, adjusting and accommodating, settling for less. We think we’ll be happy if…or we’ll be happy when…or we’ll be happy because… But the time to embrace happiness is NOW! However, if you choose to be unhappy then in the end you are just rolling out of bed and going to work day in and day out, and not performing at your best. Join me in this fun and highly interactive presentation, where you’ll develop your capacity to have a say in how you experience your work life. You’ll go beyond theories and strategies to discover a direct access to creating happiness. Happiness is a state a mind- you have the power to embrace happiness
