COLUMBUS, Ohio (February 12, 2010) — Employee engagement expert, Beth Thomas, of Sequent, has a new book coming out in March 2010 that challenges readers to answer that age-old question, “Are YOU happy?” Research has shown that employee happiness improves the bottom line, but how can a time-crunched, stressed-out employee wedge in a little joy?
Thomas, Managing Director and Executive Vice President of Consulting at Sequent, has crafted a powerful little book filled with an upbeat, personal coaching program and proven techniques. It offers practical advice on how to:
- Create your own definition of happiness
- Learn to choose happiness (even on Mondays!)
- Avoid what holds your happiness hostage: minimizing worry and negative thoughts
- Hang with a gang that gets it
- Dump the to-do list for something smarter – and better
- Capitalize on the easiest way to take the “un” out of “unhappy”
- Create a calendar of happiness
- Dive into the biggest investment you can make in your own happiness
