The Progress Principle: Using Small Wins to Ignite Joy, Engagement, and Creativity at Work Audiobook

" I found this book really hard to read and get interested in. I would say that true HR focused individuals would likely find this book more interesting. "

" Every manager and organizational leader should read this book. Great insights on how to build a culture where people are happy and productive. "

" Badly written. "

" Great concept and interesting examples. I only wish it focused more on what we can do as individuals rather than managers. "

" I would really give it 2 1/2 stars. The book offers and confirms what I have read in the past. I skipped past the "other" stories because I am personally tired of this style of writing and skipped to the practical pieces. I wish the stories were shorter. "

" Well-researched and thought out position on how to enable employees and coworkers to optimize achievement and happiness. Looks to be a fair bit that I can immediately with my team. "

" A surprisingly simple book that seems to overplay the research underpinning it. (The authors analyzed journal entries of a few hundred people and focused on a few teams. Not exactly amazing science.) Still, the main assertion, that a manager's main task is to enable progress every day, is useful. "

" For the general idea how the companies either go up or down, the book is quite good. On the other hand, I felt like the information in the book is exaggerated. Generally, It is easy to read and clear. "

" Not bad. It's research, so it takes a while before we get to any practical bits. Once we did get into the meat of it though, there were lots of insights into how managers can cultivate productive work in their teams. I wish I had read this five years ago. "

" An enlightening book! I learned some new things that are extremely helpful. "

" Excellent research-based book on helping staff move forward in their work in a nurturing way. Great read! "

" OC Business Book Club Selection--concepts worth the read --Harvard Blog recapped. Lots of anecdotes make it miss in flow. "

" Great book, I really enjoyed the simplicity of the book backed up by the study data. The way the authors define and describe "the inner work life" throughout the book makes so much sense. Read this book. "
