\u00a0<\/strong>\u201cI love the job Kerry Hannon did writing this excellent, practical book. As a noted authority on work and careers, she knows exactly what the rest of us need to do to become more fulfilled at our jobs. Take her advice and I\u2019m confident\u00a0<\/em>you\u2019ll get more out of work and more out of life.\u201d\u2014<\/strong><\/em>Richard Eisenberg, Assistant Managing Editor, Nextavenue.org<\/strong><\/p>\n

There are few things as important as having a career that makes you happy when it comes to excelling in life and succeeding in your chosen field. Most adults spend more waking hours at work than anywhere else.<\/p>\n

But less than one-third of employees in the United States feel engaged at work, according to a report by Gallup. Around the world, across 142 countries, the proportion of employees who feel engaged at work is just 13 percent. That\u2019s discouraging. But you don\u2019t have to be one of them.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>\u201cWhen you lose pride in what you do, your health, your personal relationships, and your sense of self?worth begin to diminish,\u201d says author Kerry Hannon, columnist and writer for Forbes<\/em>, New York Times<\/em> and Money<\/em> magazine amongst others.<\/p>\n

Something has got to change. To paraphrase the old adage, life\u2019s too short to be unhappy.\u00a0 This is exactly the mission Hannon goes after, and it\u2019s the pervasive problem she aims to resolve in her new book, Love Your Job: The New Rules for Career Happiness<\/em><\/strong> (ISBN: 978-1-118-89806-2, Wiley, March 2015).<\/p>\n

According to Kerry, \u201cYou can fall back in love with your job again, even if you\u2019ve been doing it for decades. This book is about finding ways to discover real joy in your job right now. The path to promotion is not always there, or at least notclear. Or you feel like you\u2019re trapped in a dead-end job. Quitting is generally not a good option, unless you already have a new position lined up elsewhere, or you already have the means to retire\u2014in which case, lucky you.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>Love Your Job\u00a0<\/em><\/strong>i<\/em>s about making your current work more engaging, more productive and ultimately more enjoyable.\u201cThis bookaddresses the common reasons people feel discontented with their work and helps them overcome these issues by thinking more entrepreneurially, having \u2018that talk\u2019 with their manager, making a sideways move within their company or discovering value and meaning in their work,\u201d says Kerry.<\/p>\n

Hannon taps into the routines, habits, and thought patterns that, over the years, may have turned a dream job into a drudge or, worse, a nightmare. The author\u2019s assignment for the reader is clear. Make a plan. Define what will make your own career path successful for you. It might be a more flexible work arrangement, a sweet salary bump, or a challenging new assignment. The core message: You can turn it around and rebound from your malaise or a grim work environment.<\/p>\n

Love Your Job<\/em><\/strong> is about solutions<\/em>. Kerry shows you how to identify the little and big things that make your work satisfying. She gives precise techniques you can adopt that will lead to bigger and better things\u2013regardless of your age or career stage. In this book, you will learn to:<\/p>\n
