IS YOUR WORK WORTH IT? How to Think About Meaningful Work

Does your work give back as much as it takes away? That's the question asked by two academics whose interests are in organizational life and the philosophy of work. Full of vivid stories about people who are and are not fulfilled by their jobs, they describe the obstacles people face who look for meaning in how they earn a living. The two authors narrate the preface and acknowledgements sections, while narrator Andrew Sellen performs the chapters with a quiet and natural vocal personality that works well with this thoughtful writing. Sounding fully engaged with the authors' mission, his calm phrasing and reverent tone are a good fit for their moving stories and humanitarian message: You don't have to stay in work that doesn't feel worthy and fulfilling.
