An eye-opening, groundbreaking tour of the purpose of work in our lives, showing how work operates in our culture and how you can find your own path to happiness in the workplace.
Why do we work? The question seems so simple. But Professor Barry Schwartz proves that the answer is surprising, complex, and urgent.
We’ve long been taught that the reason we work is primarily for a paycheck. In fact, we’ve shaped much of the infrastructure of our society to accommodate this belief. Then why are so many people dissatisfied with their work, despite healthy compensation? And why do so many people find immense fulfillment and satisfaction through “menial” jobs? Schwartz explores why so many believe that the goal for working should be to earn money, how we arrived to believe that paying workers more leads to better work, and why this has made our society confused, unhappy, and has established a dangerously misguided system.
Through fascinating studies and compelling anecdotes, this book dispels this myth. Schwartz takes us through hospitals and hair salons, auto plants and boardrooms, showing workers in all walks of life, showcasing the trends and patterns that lead to happiness in the workplace. Ultimately, Schwartz proves that the root of what drives us to do good work can rarely be incentivized, and that the cause of bad work is often an attempt to do just that.
How did we get to this tangled place? How do we change the way we work? With great insight and wisdom, Schwartz shows us how to take our first steps toward understanding, and empowering us all to find great work.

評分 評分金句： 1.如果我们秉持人们工作只是为了钱这种错误的观点去组建工厂结构，我们创造出的工作场所便会把这种错误观点变成是正确的。“你再也无法得到优秀的员工”这句话是不正确的，因为只有你给人们提供的是浪费生命的无聊单调的工作时，“你才会再也无法得到优秀的员工”。 2....
評分读完会笑，我觉得是对一本书最好的褒奖吧。 人们倾向于给自己的工作赋予意义，当人们把自己的工作视作有意义，甚至视为使命时，他做的就会超出“工作”和“职业”要求的范畴，工作就不再是一个养家糊口的饭碗，而变成了成就感、荣誉感和使命感的来源。 只有你给人们提供的工作...

"It is human nature to have a human nature that is very much the product of the society that surrounds us."
评分seldom people think about the question “ why we work." But it is a question that worth thinking. In the book, the author states that satisfied people work because of autonomy, discretion, engagement and meaning they get.
