Sinopse

Meaning is a fundamental human need. Yet, most organizations fail to provide the conditions for people to experience meaningful work. For example, while meaning is a primary contributor to engagement, it is estimated that around 60% of people are disengaged at work. The economic and social costs of this problem are immense. What is surprising is that management science knows how leaders can promote meaningful work, but that knowledge does not reach practice sufficiently. This book aims to help cover that gap.

Based on an extensive review of the latest research on leadership and human motivation and insights from practice, management science, psychology, and philosophy, this book offers a model to enable leaders to fos­ter meaning in organizations, including practical tools and guidelines for becoming a meaningful leader every day.
